摘要
We combine inside a single noncentrosymmetric laser crystal, GdAl3(BO3)(4):Nd3+, a stimulated emission and two second-order nonlinearities in cascade. The first one self-doubles the 1062.8 nm Nd3+ laser emission corresponding to the F-4(3/2)-->I-4(11/2) channel, despite the fact that it is not phase-matched. The second one can be phase-matched or not and mixes the laser wave and its second harmonic (SH) in order to produce the third harmonic (TH) at 354.3 nm. (C) 2004 American Institute of Physics.
