We report on the first demonstration of a radially polarized passively mode-locked thin-disk oscillator. Radial polarization was achieved by the use of a novel circular grating waveguide output coupler. We showed mode-locked operation up to a maximum average output power of 13.3 W with an optical efficiency of 21.8%. The degree of radial polarization of the emitted beam was measured to be 97±1%. The laser system generated pulses with a duration of 907 fs and an energy of 316 nJ corresponding to a peak power of 0.35 MW. To the best of our knowledge, these values exceed the performance of previously reported radially polarized mode-locked oscillator systems.
