摘要
A diode-pumped self-Q-switched and mode-locked intracavity frequency doubled Nd:GdVO4/KTP green laser is presented. The self mode-locking is self-starting and stable. About 100% modulation depth for the self-mode-locked green pulses has been achieved. We propose a developed rate equation model for self-Q-switched and mode-locked lasers, using the hyperbolic secant function methods and the theory of Kerr-lens mode-locking. This will consider the cascading of second-order nonlinearities of KTP crystal, the third-order nonlinearity of the laser medium, influences of the continuous pump rate, and the stimulated radiation lifetime of the active medium. With the model developed, theoretical calculations are shown to be in good agreement with experimental results. The width of the mode-locked green pulse is estimated to be about 120 ps.
