✦ Synopsis


A semiconductor saturable absorber mirror modelocking of a quasi-continuously pumped laser based on 2.4 at.% Nd:YAG slab in a bounce geometry was demonstrated and investigated. Output mode-locked and Q-switched train containing 15 pulses with total energy of 500 μJ was generated directly from the oscillator. The measured 15 ps pulse duration and excellent temporal stability ±2 ps are the best values for pure passively mode-locked and Q-switched Nd:YAG laser with the pulse pumping. Furthermore, using the cavity dumping technique, single 19 ps pulse with energy of 25 μJ was extracted directly from the oscillator.

A quasi-continuously pumped picosecond oscillator-amplifier laser system based on two identical 2.4% Nd:YAG slabs in a single bounce geometry was developed and investigated. The oscillator was passively mode locked by the multiple quantum well saturable absorber inserted into the resonator in transm
