Diode-pumped self-starting passively mode-locked neodymium-doped fibre laser

A Nd<sup>3+</sup>-fibre laser pumped by a single stripe laser diode has been passively mode-locked using a semiconductor saturable absorbed end mirror as the mode-locking element. A 6 cm length of heavily doped fibre was used to minimise the effects of positive group velocity dispersion,...
