  • Abstract
    One of the promising ways to build such pulsed laser scheme consists in the application of a fiber saturable. This paper demonstrate the stable pulsed lasing with the pulse energy up to 0.1 mJ and the pulse duration in a range of approximately 1-2 mus. In this paper we suggest a new laser configuration with Ho-doped fiber as a saturable absorber.
