摘要
56% efficient external-cavity-resonant second-harmonic generation of a diode-laser pumped, CW single-axial-mode Nd:YAG laser is reported. A theory of external doubling with a resonant fundamental is presented and compared to experimental results for three monolithic cavities of nonlinear MgO:LiNbO//3. The best conversion efficiency was obtained with a 12. 5-mm-long monolithic ring cavity doubler, which produced 29. 7 mW of CW, single-axial model 532-nm radiation from an input of 52. 5 mW.
