Abstract

A diode laser pumped passively Q-switched Nd:Gd_0.69Y_0.3TaO₄ laser based on two-dimensional (2D) layered tungsten disulfide (WS₂) saturable absorber was demonstrated for the first time. In the continuous wave (CW) operation, the maximum output power of 5.24 W with slope efficiency of 41% was obtained when the absorbed pump power was 14.18 W. The pulsed Nd:Gd_0.69Y_0.3TaO₄ laser was realized when the 2D material of WS₂ saturable absorber was inserted into the cavity. The shortest pulse duration and the highest repetition rate were 640 ns and 231 kHz, respectively. It is believed that a better laser performance can be expected when the quality of 2D material of WS₂ and Nd:Gd_0.69Y_0.3TaO₄ mixed crystal is improved.
