چکیده
Efficient cw self-frequency-doubled green laser output of 160 mW has been obtained from Yb:YAl(3)(BO(3))(4) crystal pumped by 1.4-W incident power from a fiber-coupled 976-nm laser diode. The incident-pump-power-green-output-power conversion efficiency is greater than 11.3%, and the electrical-input-green conversion efficiency is 3.9%. Tunable green output from 513.0 to 545.8 nm is also demonstrated with a quartz birefringent filter.

Diode-pumped self-frequency-doubling Nd:GdCa4O(BO3)3 lasers: toward green microchip lasers
An output power of 115 mW at 545 nm has been obtained from a diode-pumped self-frequency doubling Nd:GdCa4O(BO3)3 laser in a stable cavity. The infrared emission of the laser was found to be 1091 nm, not the 1060 nm that was expected when the highest line of the fluorescence spectrum was considered. We have demonstrated that the emission at 1091 nm was caused by the temperature increase at the ...
متن کاملGenerating green to red light with semiconductor lasers.
Diode lasers enable one to continuously cover the 730 to 1100 nm range as well as the 370 to 550 nm range by frequency doubling, but a large part of the electro-magnetic spectrum spanning from green to red remains accessible only through expensive and unpractical optically pumped dye lasers. Here we devise a method to multiply the frequency of optical waves by a factor 3/2 with a conversion tha...
متن کاملTheoretical Study of Diode Pumped Intracavity Doubled Passively Q-Switched Solid-State Lasers
In recent years, great attention has been paid to high peak power all-solid-state pulsed blue-green lasers [1–4] for some applications such as spectroscopy, display, optical data storage, coherent telecommunications, remote sensing, medicine, etc. Such lasers are generally realized by intracavity or external cavity frequency doubling of cw laser-diode (LD)-pumped solid-state Q-switched Nd-doped...
متن کاملEfficient GaAlAs diode-laser-pumped operation of Nd: YLF at 1.047 Mum with intracavity doubling to 523.6 nm.
The use of semiconductor diode lasers as pump sources for solid-state lasers was demonstrated as early as 1964.1 In the past few years the dramatic increase in output power of diode lasers 2 has made pumping of solid-state lasers practical. Recently it was shown that diode-laser-pumped Nd:YAG lasers offer advantages over lamp-pumped lasers, including high efficiency3 and good frequency stabilit...
متن کاملDiode-pumped continuous-wave and femtosecond Cr:LiCAF lasers with high average power in the near infrared, visible and near ultraviolet.
We demonstrate continuous-wave (cw), cw frequency-doubled, cw mode-locked and Q-switched mode-locked operation of multimode diode-pumped Cr:LiCAF lasers with record average powers. Up to 2.54 W of cw output is obtained around 805 nm at an absorbed pump power of 5.5 W. Using intracavity frequency doubling with a BBO crystal, 0.9 W are generated around 402 nm, corresponding to an optical-to-optic...
