摘要
Pulsed tunable blue laser light has been obtained in the 436-443 nm range by self-frequency summing the pump beam and the infrared laser beam produced by a nonlinear NYAB crystal. Excitation spectra of the blue emission are given. A theoretical model is developed and predicts the role of the different physical parameters. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
