Dual-wavelength lasers with separation from several nanometers to tens of nanometers at 1 µm waveband are attractive light sources for terahertz generation. This work reports a compact dual-wavelength vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting laser with simple elements. The gain chip is regularly designed and epitaxially grown, and the laser cavity is the most common straight line cavity. By the use of a blade as the tuning element in cavity, the laser wavelength can be tuned continuously, and the stable dual-wavelength oscillation can be obtained when the blade is situated at a certain position. The total output power of 85 mW, which is limited by our pump source, is produced when the laser wavelengths are at 961 nm and 970 nm. We have also analyzed the evolution mechanism and the stability of this dual-wavelength laser.

A multi-wavelength mode-locked fiber laser can generate different wavelengths from a single laser cavity, offering potential as a dual-frequency comb and serving as an ideal light source for terahertz wave generation. We present an optimized hybrid mode-locked Er-doped fiber laser with flexible outputs: switchable and tunable dual-wavelength mode-locking, along with stable tri-wavelength mode-locking, which is achieved by introducing 0.69 m polarization-maintaining fiber and bent 200 m single-mode fiber to enhance intra-cavity birefringence and nonlinear effect to optimize the hybrid mode-locking effect, that is, build the composite filter effect.

An all-solid-state single-frequency continuous-wave (CW) 355 nm ultraviolet (UV) laser based on a dispersion-compensated doubly resonant resonator is presented in this Letter that is achieved by employing homemade high-stability all-solid-state frequency-correlated dual-wavelength lasers at 1064 and 532 nm and a temperature-controlled type-I critical-phase-matching LiBO (LBO) to act as the fundamental laser source and the nonlinear medium, respectively. The frequency-correlated dual-wavelength single-frequency CW laser supplies the fundamental frequency 1064 and 532 nm lasers with good frequency synchronization. And the temperature-controlled LBO acts as the dispersion-compensation element to realize double resonance of the 1064 and 532 nm laser.
