Self-mode-locking through intra-cavity sum-frequency generation.

A new technique for mode-locking is demonstrated based on two lasers sharing one leg for sum-frequency generation. When the two lasers had equal round trip time one will produce bright pulses and the other dark pulses. Both lasers used Nd:YVO4 as the gain material, but operated at different wavelengths, namely 1064 nm and 1342 nm. In the present configuration, sub-250 ps pulses were generated at a repetition rate of 276 MHz with an output power of 70 mW. With appropriate choice of round trip loss at the two wavelengths it was possible to choose which laser was generating the bright pulses.
