We have successfully constructed a Kerr lens mode-locked (KLM) Ti:sapphire oscillator to generate ultrashort pulses of ~18 fs. The oscillator consists of only 5 elements including a pair of double-chirped mirrors to balance negative group delay dispersion in the cavity. The bandwidth of the mode-locked laser oscillator spectrum is from 600 nm to 950 nm and pulse energy is 1.5 nJ. Both the output spectrum and the output power were stable against environmental disturbance. For the pulse characterization, a second harmonic generation frequency resolved optical gating method was used.
