Over the past several years, an impressive progress is observed in the development of mode-locked (ML) solid-state lasers emitting in the 2-µm spectral range towards femtosecond pulse generation. This advancement is related to a great extent to the availability of new host materials for Tm- and Ho-ion doping or co-doping. We discuss essential requirements and properties of such laser media for successful operation in the sub-100-fs regime based on the 3F4 →3H6 Tm3+ and the 5I7 →5I8 Ho3+ transitions, summarizing recent ML laser results.

Stable mode-locked oscillation with a broad spectral span of 2.0-2.5 micron in the infrared wavelength range is achieved with a Cr:ZnS gain medium and a carbon nanotube saturable absorber. We apply this light source to construct the background-free vibrational spectroscopy, enabling highly sensitive molecular detection.

We will review the recent achievements and perspectives of high-power pulsed Thulium-doped fiber lasers. The presentation will include highly efficient inband-pumped multi-mJ nanosecond systems, high repetition rate high peak power few-cycle pulses as well as ultra-compact industrial-grade femtosecond sources. Selected applications such as soft-Xray-generation and semiconductor processing will be presented.

Mid-infrared fiber lasers in the spectral region of 3~5 μm can find potential applications in a wide range of fields of polymer processing, spectroscopy detection, laser surgery, and infrared countermeasures, and thus attracting increased attention. Rare-earth-doped systems based on fluoride fiber have become one of the most important platforms. In this talk, I will introduce our recent progress on efficient laser excitation、broadband wavelength tuning and supercontinuum generation in the spectral region of 3~5 μm using Dy3+, Er3+, and Ho3+doped fluoride fibers and high nonlinearity fluorotellurite fiber.

We describe the laser performance of specialty holmium doped fibers designed for high power and high efficiency, based on alumino-phospho-silicate or alumina-silicate core with a surrounding pedestal. We demonstrated with the latter an unprecedented optical efficiency of 60% in clad pumping configuration, and analyze all the results with our numerical model.

We report on the high-power mid-infrared solid-state/fiber lasers we have developed so far, including an erbium laser in the 3 μm wavelength band and an Fe:ZnSe laser in the 4 μm wavelength band.
In addition, applications of these lasers, such as plastic processing and gas sensing, will be introduced.
