85% efficiency for cw frequency doubling from 1.08 to 0.54 μm

Creators

Abstract

Conversion efficiency of 85% has been achieved in cw second-harmonic generation from 1.08 to 0.54 μm with a potassium titanyl phosphate crystal inside an external ring cavity. An absolute comparison between the experimental data and a simple theory is made and shows good agreement.
