Abstract
We demonstrated continuous-wave dual-wavelength (DW) operation of a Nd:CALGO laser using a single birefringent filter (BRF) plate. Owing to a new mechanism of the BRF loss action, the equal lasing thresholds at two wavelengths could be provided by a single transmission peak of the filter and wavelength separation was not limited to the free-spectral range (FSR) of the filter. A wide range of DW pairs with wavelength separation from sub-nm up to ~4 nm with adjustable spectral intensity ratio was experimentally demonstrated using a single 2 mm-thick BRF plate.
