    • CW and Q-switched diode-pumped laser operation of Yb 3+:NaLa(MoO4)2 

      Mandrik, A. V.; Troshin, A. E.; Kisel, V. E.; Yasukevich, A. S.; Klavsut, G. N.; Kuleshov, N. V.; Pavlyuk, A. A. (Springer, 2005)
      Continuous wave (CW) and Q-switched diode-pumped laser operation of Yb3+:NaLa(MoO4)2 single crystal was to our knowledge, demonstrated for the first time. A CW output power of 220 mW and slope efficiency of 46% were obtained. Q-switched laser operation was achieved with a pulse duration of 60 ns average output power of 70mW and slope efficiency of 22%.

    • Diode-pumped passively mode-locked Er,Yb:YAl3(BO3)4laser at 1.5-1.6 μm 

      Lagatsky, A. A.; Kisel, V. E.; Troshin, A. E.; Tolstik, N. A.; Kuleshov, N. V.; Leonyuk, N. I.; Zhukov, A. E.; Rafailov, E. U.; Sibbett, W. (2008)
      We report the first demonstration to our knowledge of passive mode locking in a diode-pumped Er3+ and Yb3+ codoped YAl3(BO3)4 laser operating in the 1.5-1.6 μm spectral region. Low-loss GaInNAs quantum-well semiconductor saturable absorber mirrors are used for the initiation and stabilization of the ultrashort-pulse generation. Pulses as short as 4.8 ps were generated at 1530 nm ...

    • Femtosecond pulse generation with a diode-pumped Yb3+:YVO4 laser 

      Kisel, V. E.; Troshin, A. E.; Shcherbitsky, V. G.; Kuleshov, N. V.; Matrosov, V. N.; Matrosova, T. A.; Kupchenko, M. I.; Brunner, F.; Paschotta, R.; Morier-Genoud, F.; Keller, U. (Optical Society of America, 2005)
      A diode-pumped Yb:YVO4 laser has been passively mode locked for the first time, to our knowledge. 120 fs pulses with an average output power of 300 mW and a peak power as high as 14.5 kW are obtained by use of a semiconductor saturable-absorber mirror for passive mode locking. The optical spectrum has a 10 nm bandwidth (full width at half-maximum) and is centered at 1021 nm.

    • Yb3+-doped YVO4 crystal for efficient Kerr-lens mode locking in solid-state lasers 

      Lagatsky, A. A.; Sarmani, A. R.; Brown, C. T. A.; Sibbett, W.; Kisel, V. E.; Selivanov, A. G.; Denisov, I. A.; Troshin, A. E.; Yumashev, K. V.; Kuleshov, N. V.; Matrosov, V. N.; Matrosova, T. A.; Kupchenko, M. I. (Optical Society of America, 2005)
      We report the first demonstration, to our knowledge, of soft-aperture Kerr-lens mode locking in a diode-pumped femtosecond Yb3+:YVO4 laser. Near-transform-limited pulses as short as 61 fs are generated around a center wavelength of 1050 nm with an output power of 54 mW and a pulse repetition frequency of 104.5 MHz. This is, to our knowledge, the shortest pulse generated directly ...
