Abstract
Diode-pumped Kerr-lens mode-locked laser operation of and nondoped combined ceramics has been achieved; pulses with an average power of under of pump power were obtained at the center wavelength of . The spectral bandwidth and the time bandwidth product were 18.9 and , respectively. To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of a Kerr-lens mode-locked laser operation based on ceramic.
