Abstract

The use of Co:MgF2 as a laser material was first demonstrated in the early years of laser development [1]. More recently, vibronic lasers such as Co:MgF2 have proven to be versatile, broadly tunable, cw and pulsed sources of infrared radiation [2,3]. We report here the first tunable, cw mode-locked operation of this laser.
