High speed electro-optical cavity dumping is demonstrated with diode-pumped mode-locked laser oscillators, namely a femtosecond Yb:glass and a picosecond Nd:YVO4 oscillator. Repetition frequencies exceeding 1MHz are obtained with pulse energies of more than 300nJ /1 microJ. Being compact and easy to operate light sources, these laser systems open up various scientific and industrial applications.
