Abstract
We report diode-pumped mode locking of Tm, Ho:YLF at 2.063 μm. Acousto-optic modulation resulted in 370 psec pulses with average output power of 100 mW when pumped with 2.6 W of cw laser diode power at room temperature. At 77 K the pulse width was similar but output power increased to 300 mW.
