  • Abstract
    A miniature Nd:vanadate (Nd:YVO4) laser is presented which was passively modelocked at the very high repetition rate of 29 GHz using a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM). An 81 mW average output power was achieved, which corresponds to 2.8 pJ pulse energy, and a pulse duration of 6.8 ps
