Abstract
In this work, a passively mode-locked Yb:YGAG (Yb:Y3Ga2Al3O12) ceramic laser generating picosecond pulses at liquid-nitrogen temperature is demonstrated. The Yb:YGAG has a similar structure to Yb:YAG, but its emission bandwidth at cryogenic temperature remains much broader, which is advantageous for ultrashort pulse generation and amplification. Using this laser material, a stable train of pulses at a wavelength of 1026 nm was obtained, with measured pulse duration of 2.4 ps, which is more than four times shorter than that achieved with a cryogenically-cooled Yb:YAG.
