Pulsed passively mode locked operation of diode pumped Nd : GdVO4 and Nd : YVO4 in a bounce geometry
Original language description
The operation of pulsed diode pumped Nd:GdVO4 and Nd:YVO4 slab lasers in a bounce geometry in a free running and a passively mode-locked regime using a semiconductor saturable absorber was demonstrated. Higher efficiency of Nd:GdVO4 in both regimes was achieved. In the free running regime the optical to optical efficiency of 28.3 % was 14 obtained with Nd:YVO4 and 39.3% with Nd:GdVO4 Crystal in spatial mode close to TEM00. In the passively mode locked regime the Q-switched and mode locked single trainscontaining 5 pulses were generated for a pump energy of I I mJ from Nd:YVO4 while the pump energy for Nd:GdVO4 was only 5.5 mJ. The pulse duration was 48 ps and 65 ps respectively. Our results clearly demonstrate the advantage of using Nd:GdVO4 in a pulsed free running and also a passively mode locked diode pumped regime in a bounce geometry.
