Magnesium- and zinc-aluminosilicate cobalt-doped glass ceramics as saturable absorbers for diode-pumped 1.3-microm laser

Q switching of a diode-pumped Nd3+:KGd(WO4)2 laser at 1.35 microm by use of cobalt-doped magnesium- and zinc-aluminosilicate glass ceramics as saturable absorbers is demonstrated. Q-switching efficiency up to 40% has been obtained. Ground-state absorption cross sections for Co2+ ions at the waveleng...
