Abstract
Passive mode locking of a diode-pumped laser is demonstrated using a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror. A high-stability, transform-limited pulse train with a repetition rate of is generated. Solitonlike pulses with maximum average output power of , minimum pulse duration of , and rms time jitter of were obtained.
