Abstract

We demonstrate a gain-switched Fe:ZnSe laser pumped by a 2958nm pulsed Ho,Pr:LLF laser. The maximum single pulse energy is 16.4 ϵJ with a minimum pulse duration of 13.9 ns at the pulse repetition frequency of 1 Hz when the Fe:ZnSe crystal is cooled to 77K by liquid nitrogen, corresponding to a slope efficiency of 22.9%. The central wavelength and FWHM linewidth are 3957.4nm and 23.2 nm, respectively. The output energy monotonically decreases as the crystal temperature increases in the range 77-293 K.
