Abstract
The authors present results on a picosecond-pulse diode laser that provides 60 nm of wavelength tuning and can be passively mode-locked at up to the eighth harmonic of the cavity round-trip frequency. Amplification of the diode oscillator in a single-stage YDFA (CorActive fiber) when mode-locked at different harmonics is also described.
