This work describes the experimental results obtained on the Cr4+: YAG crystal used as a passive Q-switch in Nd:YAG lasers. In addition, the combination of a Cr 4+ : YAG passive Q-switch with an acousto-optical Q-switch operating simultaneously in one cavity was investigated. More than 180 W averag

We report on the passively Q-switched mode-locking of a quasi-cw (QCW) diode pumped Nd:GdVO 4 laser with Cr 4+ :YAG saturable absorber. We show that by using the QCW pumping high quality Q-switched mode-locking can be easily obtained in the laser even with a simple two-mirror laser cavity configurat
By considering the Gaussian spatial distributions of the intracavity photon density and the initial populationinversion density, the coupled rate equations for a diode-pumped passively Q-switched and mode-locked (QML) laser with Cr 4+ :YAG saturable absorber are given. These coupled rate equations a
