Diode-pumped passively Q-switched tunable Er-Yb double-clad fibre laser

Reliable passive Q-switching of a cladding-pumped Er-Yb fibre laser at 1532-1563 nm has been demonstrated using cobalt-doped ZnS crystal as saturable absorber. High peak powers >10 kW were obtained for /spl sim/2.75 W of absorbed pump power at 915 nm.
