Abstract

A SESAM mode-locked Yb:YAG thin disk laser was designed and analyzed based on the conjugated dual parabolic mirrors multi-pass pumping scheme. In the experiment, 3.6W mode-locked pulses were obtained at the repetition rate of 38.3MHz with a 5% transmission output coupler at 1030 nm. And the phenomenon of double pulses and chaotic-QML were observed in the high pumping power. Moreover, it was found that the pumping power range of the CW modelocking was very narrow in our experiment.
