Abstract
We report on the sub-100 fs pulse generation in a diode pumped Yb3+:Sc2SiO5 (Yb:SSO) laser. Pumped by a 976 nm single emitter diode and mode-locked with a SESAM, the laser generated stable mode locked pulses with 71 fs duration, 89 MHz repetition rate, and an average power of 38 mW at 1044.6 nm under the incident pump power of 6.5 W. To the best of our knowledge, this is the shortest pulse ever produced from an Yb3+ doped orthosilicate crystal laser.
