Ultra-low-noise monolithic mode-locked solid-state laser

Ultra-low repetition rate mode-locked fiber laser with high-energy pulses.

This paper reports on the results of research into passively modelocked fiber laser with a record-setting optical length of the resonant cavity amounting to 3.8 km. Significant elongation of the laser resonator led to more than two orders of magnitude increase in the output pulse energy at the same pump radiation power. At ultra-low (for mode-locked lasers) pulse repetition rate (77 kHz) and pu...

Simultaneous multiwavelength generation from a mode-locked all-solid-state Cr:forsterite laser.

We demonstrate a multiple-channel, mode-locked, all-solid-state Cr:forsterite laser. By inserting an etalon into the laser cavity, we have generated 12 phase-locked channels with 9-19-ps pulse width near 1230 nm with 280-mW average output power from a single laser oscillator. By tuning the etalon bandwidth we can shorten the pulse width in a specific channel to 1.8 ps.

Mode Locked Laser Diode in a High Power Solid State Regenerative Amplifier and Mount Mechanism

Multi-wavelength, all-solid-state, continuous wave mode locked picosecond Raman laser.

We demonstrate the operation of a cascaded continuous wave (CW) mode-locked Raman oscillator. The output pulses were compressed from 28 ps at 532 nm down to 6.5 ps at 559 nm (first Stokes) and 5.5 ps at 589 nm (second Stokes). The maximum output was 2.5 W at 559 nm and 1.4 W at 589 nm with slope efficiencies up to 52%. This technique allows simple and efficient generation of short-pulse radiati...
