The bistable output of a 792 nm laser-diode end pumped continuous wave Tm, Ho: YLF laser is reported for the first time. When the temperature of the Tm, Ho: YLF crystal is 283 K, the width of bistable section is 100 mW, and the jump power at the turning point is 15 mW. The influence of crystal temperature on the bistable performance of 2 μm laser is studied in the experiment. The width of bistable section was reduced from 100 mW to 60 mW and the jump power at the turning point reduced from 15mW to 6 mW respectively, when the temperature of laser crystal is increased from 283 K to 298 K. The bistable output in the continuous wave Tm, Ho: YLF laser comes from the co-effect of the energy transfer upconversion, excited state absoption and lower level reabsorption of 2 μm laser light.
