摘要
A diode-cladding-pumped mid-infrared passively Q-switched Er3+-doped ZBLAN fiber laser with an average output power of watt-level based on a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) is demonstrated. Stable pulse train was produced at a slope efficient of 17.8% with respect to the launched pump power. The maximum average power of 1.0 W at a repetition rate of 146.3 kHz was achieved with a corresponding pulse energy of 6.9 μJ. The maximum peak power was calculated to be 21.7 W. ©, 2015, Editorial Office of High Power Laser and Particle Beams. All right reserved.
