摘要
We have investigated a simple scheme based on a combination of two nonlinear processes, stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in LiIO3 and second harmonic generation (SHG) in LBO, which efficiently convert the 1064 nm fundamental of a Nd:YAG laser to the yellow at 580 nm. Average power up to 0.55 W has been generated at 580 nm, using a standard arclamp-pumped, acousto-optically Q-switched Nd:YAG laser which normally produces 3 W of 1064 nm output at 4 kHz.
