Abstract

A method for generating a laser pulse train is provided, including at least the following method steps: generating a laser pulse train at a pulse repetition frequency; coupling the laser pulse train into an acousto-optical modulator, and selecting individual laser pulses of the laser pulse train. A system for generating a laser pulse train is also provided, including at least a pulsed laser and an acousto-optical modulator, and an associated control device.
