Abstract
We propose an ultrafast shutter, based on the saturable properties of polymethine cyanide dyes, with a variable shutter speed of 10–40 psec and more. With this, one can measure the pulse duration of the mode‐locked ruby laser pulse. We can also deduce the fluorescence decay time of these solutions employed.Keywords
