Spring 2015
A longitudinally diode-pumped, passively Q-switched Yb:CaF2 laser has been developed and characterised using a Cr:YAG saturable absorber. A peak average output power of 914 mW at a repetition rate of 1314 Hz was obtained with a slope efficiency of 20%. The output pulse energy was 0.62 mJ with a...

Passively modelocked diode-pumped solid-state lasers based on semiconductor saturable absorber mirrors and Kerr lens mode-locking which have demonstrated good performance in terms of pulse duration, peak power, pulse repetition rates and maintainability. Yb3+:CaF2 has been recognized as a good...
