The mode-locked laser output consisted of a train of pulses of less than 1 ns FWHM with an energy of ∼ 17 pJ at a repetition rate of 41.45 MHz. When the laser was simultaneously Q-switched the peak power of the mode-locked pulses inside the 690 ns-wide envelope was enhanced by more than three orders of magnitude. %@ 0013-5194 %T Mode-locking of a neodymium-doped monomode fibre laser %B Electronics Letters %D February 1986 %V 22 %N 5 %P 268-269 %I Institution of Engineering and Technology %U https://digital-library.theiet.org/;jsessionid=2rvd8rwrwa7h7.x-iet-live-01content/journals/10.1049/el_19860184 %G EN
