Generation of 15-nJ pulses from a highly efficient, low-cost multipass-cavity Cr[superscript 3+]:LiCAF laser

Generation of 15-nJ pulses from a highly efficient, low-cost multipass-cavity Cr[superscript 3+]:LiCAF laser

We describe the generation of enhanced pulse energies using a multipass-cavity (MPC) Cr[superscript3] +:LiCAF laser, pumped by inexpensive, single spatial mode laser diodes. A semiconductor saturable absorber was used for stable mode-locked operation. The MPC reduced the pulse repetition rate to the...
