Blue 473-nm solid state diode pumped Nd:YAG/BiBO microchip laser

AbstractIn this paper we present a design of a compact, low power diode-pumped CW Nd:YAG laser operating at 946 nm with intracavity blue light generation at 473 nm for battery operated applications. The nonlinear crystal used in the experiment is a BiBO crystal cut for phase-matching type I. Using 0.8 W of pumping power, 20-mW stabile output power of blue light was achieved. The second harmonic generation conversion efficiency was 2.5%.

Velocity Mismatch

The possibilities of efficient amplification and additional shortening of faster moving short fundamental harmonic pulses by the more slowly moving longer second harmonic pulses for type I phase matching are numerically analyzed for initially collimated axially symmetric beams, taking into account diffraction, group velocity mismatch and dispersion of the pulses.
