“…In our experiment, we slightly mismatched the cavity alignment, resulting in the cavity close to the edge of a stable cavity, which is beneficial for kerr-lens mode-locking. And according to reference [17], Yb:LYSO crystal has the character to realized self-mode-locking operation. So we have reasons to surmise the short pulse of 61 fs was generated by kerr-lens mode-locking instead of SESAM mode-locking.…”

“…In the continuous-wave laser operation of Yb:LYSO, a maximal slope efficiency of 96% and output power of 7.8 W were respectively achieved with different pump sources [16]. An efficient diode-pumped self-mode-locking Yb:LYSO laser with 7.8 ps at 1058 nm was also demonstrated in 2010 [17]. In 2011, The first femtosecond operation based on Yb:LYSO laser mode-locked by a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM)with 780 fs pulse duration at the center wavelength around 1042 nm was realized [18].…”

A stable diode pumped Kerr-lens mode-locked (KLM) Yb:LuYSiO5 (Yb:LYSO) laser of generating 61 fs pulses at a central wavelength of 1055.4 nm is experimentally demonstrated. This is, to the best of our knowledge, the first demonstration of femtosecond KLM operation in Yb:LYSO laser, and it is believed that 61 fs is the shortest pulse duration ever produced from an Yb-doped orthosilicate laser. The average output power of the mode-locked laser is 40 mW and the repetition rate is 113 MHz.

“…The ultra-fast laser performance of the Yb:LYSO was experimentally investigated previously. [28][29][30] In the present paper, the first graphene oxide based passively mode-locked Yb:LYSO laser is reported. The stable mode locking is achieved at the pump power up to 5.73 W. The central wavelength of the laser spectrum is 1043.2 nm with a pulse duration of 5.0 ps.…”

A low cost and simply fabricated reflective graphene oxide is successfully made. By using this absorber, as well as an end reflector, we obtain a passively mode-locked Yb:LuYSiO5 laser operating at nearly 1 μm. When the pump power is increased up to 5.73 W, stable mode locking is achieved. The central wavelength of the laser spectrum is 1043.2 nm with a pulse duration of 5.0 ps. When the pump power reaches 8.16 W, dual-wavelength mode locking laser pulses at 1036.3 nm and 1043.5 nm are simultaneously detected.

“…Passive Q-switching enables the components with lower-cost and compact laser cavities. The shortage is that parameters in passively Q-switching operation like pulse width, repetition rate, pulse shape, per pulse energy, and peak power are unstable or harder to independently control [13][14][15]. It is inconvenient for user, so we need to find out a kind of compact high stable passively Q-switched laser with controllable pulse width and repetition rate at nanosecond degree.…”
