摘要：

We report in the present paper the Yb(3+)-doped Y(2)Ca(3)B(4)O(12) diode-pumped laser operation in both continuous-wave (cw) and passively Q-switched modes. The differential slopes of the cw output power are in the 22%-40% range under different experimental conditions. Continuous tuning of the laser wavelength is obtained in the 1020-1057 nm range, in agreement with the broad emission spectra. In pulsed regime the repetition rate occurs up to 1.6 kHz and pulse energies of 30-75 mu J with about 40 ns duration are obtained. (c) 2008 American Institute of Physics.
