We report on first nonlinear mirror mode-locked praseodymium based solid-state laser. As an active medium, the Pr:YAlO3 crystal was used. For mode-locking, a nonlinear BBO crystal together with a properly designed dichroic mirror were employed to form an output coupler with intensity dependent reflection. Using 1W InGaN pump laser diode, 22 mW of mean output power with pulse duration and repetition rate of similar to 250 ps and 105 MHz, respectively, was demonstrated at 747 nm wavelength.
