Study on the passive mode-locking of Nd:GdVO4 laser

Laser, which means Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation, is a piece of equipment that generates and amplifies light. The aim of this project is to investigate experimentally the lasing property of a diode end-pumped Nd:GdVO4 solid-state laser and to generate mode-locked pulses...
