    Abstract:
    Compact diode-pumped continuous wave (CW) and passively Q switched Tm:YAG lasers operating on the 3H43H5 transition are demonstrated. Using a 3.5-at.% Tm:YAG crystal, a maximum CW output power of 1.49 W is achieved at 2330 nm with a slope efficiency of 10.1%. The first Q switched operation of the mid-infrared Tm:YAG laser around 2.3 µm is realized with a few-atomic-layer MoS2 saturable absorber. Pulses as short as 150 ns are generated at a repetition rate of 190 kHz, corresponding to a pulse energy of 1.07 µJ. Tm:YAG is an attractive material for diode-pumped CW and pulsed mid-infrared lasers emitting around 2.3 µm.
