✦ Synopsis

We report on nonlinear experiments pumped with
high-power femtosecond pulses from a passively mode-locked thin
disk Yb:YAG laser: a nonlinear fiber compression experiment,
generating 33-fs pulses with 18 W average power and a
fiber-feedback parametric oscillator generating 19 W of signal
power in the 1.5-μm region and 7.8 W of idler power at a
wavelength of 3.57 μm.

We report on a compact high-power passively modelocked Nd:LuVO4 laser by use of semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM). The laser generated clean CW modelocked pulses with an average output power of 8.6 W, a repetition rate of 144 MHz, and a pulse duration of 13.2 ps. By employing a three-m

Passively cw mode-locked laser operation of Ybdoped NaY(WO4)2 (Yb:NaYW) crystal was demonstrated with an average power of 400 mW. This is the highest power achieved from the mode-locked Yb:NaYW laser to our knowledge. The laser was end-pumped by a high power fiber pigtailed laser diode bar and the m
