We present a passively mode-locked semiconductor disk laser (SDL) emitting at 650nm with intra-cavity second harmonic generation to the ultraviolet (UV) spectral range. Both the gain and the absorber structure contain InP quantum dots (QDs) as active material. In a v-shaped cavity using the semiconductor samples as end mirrors, a beta barium borate (BBO) crystal is placed in front of the semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) for pulsed UV laser emission in one of the two outcoupled beams. Autocorrelation (AC) measurements at the fundamental wavelength reveal a FWHM pulse duration of 1.22ps. With a repetition frequency of 836MHz, the average output power is 10mW per beam for the red emission and 0.5mW at 325nm.

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on continuous and passively mode-locked operation of the multi-component fluoride CaSrBaF crystal. A novel disorder laser material, Yb:CaSrBaF (CaSrBaF) of multi-component middle entropy crystal was designed and grown by temperature gradient technique (TGT) for the first time. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis of Yb:CaSrBaF crystal reveals that Ca, Sr, and Ba of near equal atomic ratio (1:1:1) have formed a homogeneous single-phased fluorite solid solution.

In this paper, the theoretical analysis of the passive mode-locked semiconductor ring lasers (PML-SRLs) is investigated based on a travelling wave model. It is found that both the optical confinement factor and the injection current make great contributions to the operation regime and the performance of PML-SRLs. All operation regimes of PML-SRLs are governed by the transient gain-loss balance.
