Problems solved by technology

Recently, it has been reported that dual-wavelength mid-infrared pulsed laser output can be achieved through active Q-switching and active Q-switching guided gain modulation, and the pulse energy can reach the level of tens of μJ. The introduced modulation crystal makes the structure of the method complex, and makes the fiber laser lose its inherent flexibility, compactness, small size and other advantages, and the cost is also very expensive
