Abstract
We report what we believe to be the first demonstration of cw and passively mode-locked (Yb:YAP) laser operation under diode pumping. Spectroscopic properties of a -doped YAP single crystal were investigated. Output power up to with slope efficiency of 64.5% in the cw regime and pulse duration with average power of from a mode-locked Yb:YAP laser were demonstrated.
