摘要
Both CW and passive mode-locking operation of the laser are experimentally investigated. A maximum CW output power of 1.4W with a slope efficiency of 20% is obtained on a 7mm long 1.5 at:% Yb:CN crystal, while stable passive mode-locking with a commercial semiconductor saturable absorption mirror (SESAM) was achieved on a 3mm long 3 at:% Yb: CN crystal. The mode-locked pulses have pulse width of 251 fs and an average output power of 44 mW at 1038nm. (C) 2011 Optical Society of America
