“…Our research group fabricated a single-mode fiber-coupled laser diode (LD) offaxis pumped Brewster cut Yb:QX laser to generate femtosecond HG modes, the slope efficiencies of HG 00 , HG 10 , and HG 20 are 19.8%, 14.7%, and 11.9%. The mode locking thresholds of HG 00 , HG 10 , and HG 20 are 19.4 mW, 26.2 mW, and 37.2 mW, with the pump powers of 210 mW, 370 mW, and 580 mW, the pulse duration was about 190 fs [25]. Zhao et al push forwarded the advancement of femtosecond laser vortices into the 2 µm spectral region, the LG 0,±1 modes were generated in the femtosecond regime [26].…”
