目前2.9微米波段脉冲激光的获取方式主要有两种：一、以三价稀土元素Tm3+、Ho3+为激活离子的固体或者光纤激光器。二、利用1微米波段激光泵浦ZnGeP（ZGP)或者KTiOPO4（KTP）晶体的光参量振荡器（OPO）。第二种获取方式由于所用器件结构复杂、成本较高、效率低而极少采用。
产生2.9微米波段超短脉冲激光的技术主要分为主动锁模和被动锁模两种。主动锁模由于所需要的调制元件响应时间比较长，而且其产生的损耗窗口非常宽，因此获得的脉宽较宽，通常在几十到上百皮秒（ps）量级。被动锁模利用可饱和吸收体的快速响应时间，可以获得短至飞秒（fs）量级的超短脉冲激光。目前2.9微米波段的可饱和吸收体主要有：（1）吸收晶体，如：PbS量子点玻璃、Cr2+:ZnS、Cr2+:ZnSe等；（2）半导体材料：如半导体可饱和吸收镜（SESAM）、InGaAs等；（3）新型一维、二维材料，如石墨烯、碳纳米管、MoS2等。然而，可饱和吸收体较低的光损伤阈值限制了2.9微米波段被动锁模超短脉冲激光的输出功率。
