Abstract

In this paper, self-Q-switched (SQS) and passively Q-switched mode-locked (QML) dual-wavelength Nd:YSAG lasers are reported, that works at 1058.97 and 1061.49 nm, simultaneously. Till now, the performance on SQS, and passively QML operation by using black phosphorus (BP) in Nd:YSAG crystal lasers have not been reported as per the author’s knowledge. The Nd:YSAG laser SQS operation was realized by designing a simple plano-plano resonator cavity. The maximum output power of 0.471 W at absorbed pump power 2.64 W and the pulse duration was 885 ns. The Nd:YSAG laser QML operation was realized by designing a Z-type resonator cavity. The duration of mode-locked pulse inside the Q-switched envelop was estimated to be 235 ps with 96.5 MHz repetition rate at the absorbed pump power of 4.08 W in QML with black phosphorus saturable absorber (BP-SA).
