A diode-pumped actively Q-switched and modelocked Nd:GdVO4 laser with great average output power and high efficiency was realized by using a comparative simple configuration and a short cavity length. The laser generates stable mode-locked pulses of estimated width 240 ps lying underneath a Q-switch

By using LT-GaAs as saturable absorber, we have demonstrated the stable Q-switched and mode-locked (QML) Nd:LuVO 4 laser run in a Z-type folded cavity. Nearly 100% modulation depth of mode locking can be obtained as long as the pump power reaches the oscillation threshold. The repetition rate of the
Regular and robust Q-switched and mode-locked (QML) pulses are produced in Nd:GdVO~4~ laser by the integration of nonlinear mirror and semiconductor saturable absorber mirror. The threshold of QML operation is increased by putting the SESAM in laser cavity with large beam radius. The nonlinear mirro
