摘要
Five kinds of the laser passive modulators: single crystal semiconductor wafers, plastic dye sheets, lithium fluoride crystals containing F-2(-) color center, chromium yttrium aluminum garnet crystals and ionic color filter glass that can Q-switched modulate, mode-locked modulate, and Q-switched mode-locking modulate the conventional flash-lamp pumped Nd:hosted lasers, Er:Glass eye-safe solid-state lasers as well as all those of diode-pumped Nd:hosted and Er:Glass eye-safe microchip lasers are presented. Theoretical model are proposed and the detail analysis are presented.
