High Power and Short Pulse Width Operation of Passively Q-Switched Er:Lu2O3 Ceramic Laser at 2.7 μm

Using a low non-saturable loss Bragg-reflector-based semiconductor saturable mirror, a passively Q-switched Er:Lu2O3 ceramic laser at 2.7 μm demonstrated short pulse-width and efficient operation, generating stable pulses of 70 ns pulse-width and ~71 kHz repetition rates. Over 692 mW of avera...
