✦ Synopsis

We demonstrated a Kerr-lens self-mode-locked Yb:(Lu0.5Y0.5)2SiO5 (Yb:LYSO) laser for the first time, which was independent of active or passive modulators as well as hard diaphragm inside cavity. An output power of 3.08 W with a repetition rate of 99 MHz was obtained using a pump power of 16.48 W. The pulse duration estimated from this measurement was 7.8 ps at 1058 nm. Meanwhile, pulse energy of 31.1 nJ with output peak power up to 3.99 kW were generated in this system.

Output power, W 2.0 2.
