A Bidirectional, Diode-Pumped, Passively Mode-Locked Nd:YVO4 Ring Laser with a Low-Temperature-Grown Semiconductor Saturable Absorber Mirror
-
Abstract
We report the operation of a bidirectional picosecond pulsed ring Nd:YVO4 laser based on a low-temperature-grown semiconductor saturable absorber mirror. Except for the laser crystal, the six-mirror ring laser cavity has no intra-cavity elements such as focusing lens or mirror. The bidirectional mode locked pluses are obtained at the repetition rate of 117.5MHz, pulse duration of 81ps, power of 2×200mW.
