[ALPS12-04] Cavity-Dumped Yb: CALYO Femtosecond Oscillator
based on SESAM assisted Kerr-lens mode locking

*Biao Ba¹ (1. Xidian University)

We demonstrate a cavity-dumped diode-pumped Yb: CALYO oscillator mode-locked by SESAM assisted Kerr-lens. Pulses with energy up to 230 nJ and 1.2 μJ were obtained at dumping frequency of 1 MHz and 10 kHz, respectively.
