摘要
By solving the Haus master equation through split step Fourier transform method, several programs which can simulate the soliton mode-locked dynamic processes of the passively mode-locked solid laser with a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) are established, based on a MATLAB environment. The pulse evolution equations are solved numerically. Sample calculations for a diode-pumped Nd3+:YVO4 (0.5% doped) laser with a SESAM are presented to demonstrate the use of the simulation programs and the related formulas. Several theoretical results such as the pulse width, the peak power and the average output power are obtained with a given cavity structure, which are in good agreement with the reported experimental results.
