Abstract

We report a continuous-wave (CW) coherent red radiation at 666 nm by intracavity frequency doubling generation of 1331 nm Nd:GGG laser. With incident pump power of 18.3 W, output power of 910 mW at 666 nm has been obtained using a 10 mm-long LBO crystal. At the output power level of 910 mW, the output stability is better than 5%. The beam quality M 2 values were equal to 1.21 and 1.34 in X and Y directions, respectively.
