Abstract

It is reported that the efficient and compact yellow green laser at 561 nm generated by intracavity frequency doubling of a continuous wave (CW) laser operation of a diode pumped Nd:YAG laser on the 4 F 3/24 F 13/2 transition operated at 1123 nm. An LBO crystal, cut for critical type I phase matching at room temperature is used for second harmonic generation of the laser. With dual end pump configurations at total incident pump power of 40 W, as high as 10.8 W of CW output power at 561 nm is achieved with 20 mm long LBO. The optical-to-optical conversion efficiency is up to 27%, and the power stability in 8 h is better than 2.56%.
