Efficient Mode-locked and Q-switched Nd∶YVO4 Laser with Semiconductor Saturable Absorber Mirror
摘要
Abstract
We reported an efficient diode pumped Nd∶YVO41 064 nm laser passively mode-locked and Q-switched by a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror(SESAM). At the incident pump power of 7.5 W, 2.81 W average output power was obtained during stable CW mode locking with a repetition rate of 111 MHz. The optical conversion efficiency was 37.5%, and the slope efficiency was 39%. So far as we know, this is the highest optical-optical conversion efficiency with a SESAM at home.
