✦ Synopsis

A passively Q-switched mode-locking of continuous wave diode-pumped Tm,Ho:YVO4 laser by use of In-GaAs/GaAs as a saturable absorber is reported for the first time as the author's know. The maximum Q-switched mode-locking output power was 210 mW at a wavelength of 2.05 μm with pulse repetition frequency of 16.32 kHz.

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
