摘要
A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser has been actively mode-locked at a subharmonic frequency for the first time,to the authors’knowledge.The laser operation mode is provided by a combination of a traveling wave acousto-optic modulator and a spherical cavity mirror.The dynamics of laser generation is investigated.Pulses with a duration of 70 ps and a peak power of about 10 MW were obtained.Also presented are new results on obtaining high-power[~60 kW]picosecond tunable radiation in the~620 nm region based on frequency conversion of a superluminescent parametric generator pumped by such a laser.
