Abstract: The invention relates to a rare earth ion ultrashort laser source including a resonant cavity (1) having a first output face (2) partially reflecting and a second reflecting face (3). Said source also comprises a first active material (4). Said first material (4) receives a pump luminous flux (6) transmitted via a first solid laser pump source (7). According to the invention, the resonant cavity (1) exhibits a length of optical path travelled by said pulses greater than 7.
