โฆ Synopsis
A passively Q-switched and mode-locked c-cut Nd:LuVO4 laser at 1.06 ฮผm using Cr 4+ :YAG absorber has been successfully demonstrated. A nearly 100% modulation depth of mode-locking was achieved. At pump power of 12.04 W, the maximum average output power of 0.64 W and Q-switched pulse envelop repetition rate of 60 kHz were obtained with absorber's initial transmission of 96%, while the highest Q-switched pulse energy of 14.11 ฮผJ was achieved with initial transmission of 60%. The duration of mode-locked pulse within Q-switched envelop was estimated to be 750 ps with 110 MHz repetition rate. 50.0% 50.0%

A diode-pumped doubly passively Q-switched Nd:LuVO4 laser with Cr 4+ :YAG saturable absorber and GaAs output coupler is realized. This laser can generate a shorter and more symmetric pulse profile when compared with pure GaAs. By using two Cr 4+ :YAG saturable absorbers with different small-signal t
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
By using GaAs as both a saturable absorber and an output coupler, a laser-diode pumped passively Q-switched Nd:LuVO 4 laser has been realized for the first time to our knowledge. The maximum laser output power of 1.91 W has been obtained at the incident pump power of 12.7 W, corresponding to an opti

In the Qswitched regime, an average output power of 150 mW is obtained under the absorbed pump power of 6.6 W; the pulse width is 46 ns with the puls
A passively Q-switched mode-locked all-solid-state YVO~4~/Nd:YVO~4~ composite crystal laser with a low-temperature (LT)-GaAs saturable absorber mirror was realized. Q-switched mode-locking pulses laser with about 100% modulation depth was obtained at the pump power of 3 W and the mode-lock pulse tra
