Abstract
A self-frequency-doubled (KTA) Raman laser is realized in a diode-end-pumped acousto-optically Q-switched intracavity Raman laser configuration. A -long x-cut KTA crystal is used as the Raman medium, and its Raman mode is employed to finish the conversion from fundamental laser to Raman laser. Self-frequency doubling of the Raman laser is accomplished in the same KTA crystal, and a yellow laser is obtained. With an incident diode power of and a pulse repetition rate of , a yellow-laser power of is obtained. The conversion efficiency from diode power to yellow-laser power is 7.5%.
