We report the generation of synchronized trains of picosecond pulses at two independently tunable wavelengths from cw mode-locked dye lasers, synchronously pumped by a mode-locked argon-ion laser (pulse widthapprox.100 psec). This has been achieved both by two-wavelength operation of a single Rhodamine 6G dye laer and by synchronously pumping two independent (Rh-6G) dye lasers. For both cases, with typical pulse widths of approx. = 5 psec at two independently tunable wavelengths, cross-correlation measurements indicate good synchronization, with a jitter of less than approx.10 psec between the two pulse trains.
