RESUMO
The first, to the best of our knowledge, mid-infrared Q-switched Ce3+-doped glass laser is demonstrated. As saturable absorbers, Fe2+:CdSe and Fe2+:CdTe are used for the first time. When Q-switched by Fe:CdSe, the laser operates in a multi-pulse regime with an individual pulse width of 110â ns, centered at λ = 5.20â µm. With Fe:CdTe as saturable absorber, 1-3 giant pulses of 30â ns pulse width are generated at λ = 5.13â µm.
