1. An ultra-short pulsed laser system, comprising:

  • an optical combiner configured to combine a primary optical pulse with a secondary optical signal to generate a combined optical signal, the primary optical pulse and the secondary optical signal having a distinguishable characteristic;

    an optical amplifier configured to optically amplify the combined optical signal to generate an optically amplified combined optical signal;

    an optical pulse compressor configured to compress at least the primary optical pulse contained within the optically amplified combined optical signal and output a compressed combined optical signal; and

    an optical separator configured to separate the compressed combined optical signal into an output primary optical pulse and an output secondary optical signal according to the distinguishable characteristic.
