Abstract

We report both continuous-wave and passively mode-locked laser actions in a Yb 3+ -doped gadolinium yttrium oxyorthosilicate Yb:GdYSiO 5 (Yb:GYSO) crystal. Continuous-wave (CW) laser operations were compared under different pump conditions with high-power diodes of different wavelengths and fiber cores. CW mode-locking was obtained with a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror.
