摘要: Abstract Synchronous mode locking of an NaCl:OH- (F+2)H color center laser pumped by a Nd:LiYF4 at 1.053 μm is reported. The capable generating transform-limited pulses as short 1.8 ps 1.6 and producing output power 1.7 W for 6 pump power. performance characteristics this with regard to coupling, power, pulse width cavity length detuning are presented.
