โฆ Synopsis
A passively mode-locked all-solid-state YVO~4~/Nd:YVO~4~ composite crystal laser was realized with a low temperature (LT) In~0.25~Ga~0.75~As semiconductor saturable absorber mirror. The saturable absorber was used as nonlinear absorber and output coupler simultaneously. Both the Q-switch and continuous-wave mode locking operation were experimentally realized. At a pump power of 4 W, the Q-switched mode locking changed to continuous wave mode locking. An average output power of 4.1 W with 5 ps pulse width was achieved at the pump power of 12 W, corresponding to an optical-optical conversion efficiency of 34.2%.
