Abstract

In this paper, we report second harmonic generation in a tunable/Q-switch Nd3+-doped fiber laser using a LiNbO₃-integrated optics device. The component is a low-voltage asymmetric Mach-Zehnder Interferometer. Laser emission occurs simultaneously at two wavelengths (lambda) ₀ equals 1088 nm et (lambda) ₂ equals 544 nm. As a driving voltage is applied to the LiNbO₃ component, the lasing wavelengths are tuned by mode hopping. We demonstrate a Q-switch mode operating of that laser.
