El. Portnoi et al., SUPERHIGH-PO NER PICOSECOND OPTICAL PULSES FROM Q-SWITCHED DIODE-LASER, IEEE journal of selected topics in quantum electronics, 3(2), 1997, pp. 256-260
Generation of 40-ps optical pulses was demonstrated with a peak power
of up to 45 TN in a single mode and of up to 380 W from a broad-area l
aser diode, Such optical power was achieved in Q-snitching regime by m
eans of a saturable absorber formed inside the laser cavity by deep im
plantation of heavy ions.
