摘要：

A tunable coherent blue light source with a tuning range of 430-470 nm has been built. Tunable blue radiation was obtained by intracavity frequency doubling of a Ti:Al2O3 laser in KNbO3 crystals. The titanium sapphire laser was operated in a pulsed mode pumped by the second harmonic of a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. An infrared to blue conversion of 45% and a total conversion efficiency (532 nm to tunable blue) of 2% were reached.
