摘要:
The direct generation of passively Q-switched lasers at a green wavelength has rarely been investigated in the past.In this Letter,we demonstrate a passively Q-switched praseodymium-doped yttrium lithium fluoride green laser at 522 nm using CdTe/CdS quantum dots as a saturable absorber.A maximum average output power of 33.6 mW is achieved with the shortest pulse width of 840 ns.The corresponding pulse energy and peak power reached 0.18 μJ and 0.21 W,respectively.To the best of our knowledge,this is the first demonstration in regard to a quantum dots saturable absorber operating in the green spectral region.
