A Nd3+-doped Schott LG680 silicate glass laser was pumped with a single-mode 200-mW diode. Efficient cw operation was demonstrated with 37.5 mW output power and 36% slope efficiency. Passive mode-locking with a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror yielded 80-fs pulses with a two-prism setup. Alternatively, pulses of ~ 200-fs, tunable over the range 1058-1076 nm, were obtained with either slit-tuning or a single-prism dispersive resonator. Output powers from 6 to14 mW have been measured.

Abstract
A Nd3+-doped Schott LG680 silicate glass laser was pumped with a single-mode 200-mW diode. Efficient cw operation was demonstrated with 37.5 mW output power and 36% slope efficiency. Passive mode-locking with a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror yielded 80-fs pulses with a two-prism setup. Alternatively, pulses of ~ 200-fs, tunable over the range 1058-1076 nm, were obtained with either slit-tuning or a single-prism dispersive resonator. Output powers from 6 to14 mW have been measured.File in questo prodotto:
