Abstract

Motivated by the need for simple and compact picosecond sources at 1.3 μm for applications such as telecommunications and fiber-sensing, we have demonstrated self-starting passively mode-locked Nd: YLF at 1313 nm and 1321 nm and Nd: YVO4 at 1342 nm using semiconductor saturable absorbers. Pulses as short as 4.6-ps durations were achieved with Nd: YVO4 and 5.7 ps with Nd:YLE.
