Abstract

We report experimental results on the mode-locked operation of a flash-lamp-pumped Nd:YAG laser at 1.064 µm. The KTP crystal, which induces passive mode-locking, exploits the existence and properties of spatial Zakharov-Manakov soliton dynamics. A train of pulses with duration close to 100 ps, repetition rate of 136 MHz and modulation depth almost 100% has been produced. The mode-locked pulses are modulated with a longer 180 ns pulse envelope with repetition rate of 10 Hz. (© 2011 by Astro Ltd., Published exclusively by WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
