Abstract

We first demonstrate Kerr-lens mode locking of diode pumped Nd:LMA laser by using an additional Kerr medium of large nonlinear coefficient and fast response time. The laser produces 610-fs, 130-MHz pulses at 1054 nm of laser wavelength and 10 mW of average output power. Kerr-lens mode locking is initiated by mechanical perturbation.
