Abstract:
Saturation of near-infrared absorption in Mg(2)SiO(4):Cr is observed, and the absorption cross section at 1.08 microm is estimated to be sigma(alpha) = (2.3 +/- 0.3) x 10(-18) cm(2). Q switching and passive mode locking of a Nd:YAG laser have been realized with a Mg(2)SiO(4):Cr saturable absorber.
