Diode-pumped CW frequency-doubled Nd:GSAG-LBO blue laser at 471 nm

Abstract: We describe the output performances of the 942 nm 4 F 3/2 → 4 I 9/2 transition in Nd:GSAG under diode-laser pumping. An end-pumped Nd:GSAG crystal yielded 3.7 W of continuous-wave output power for 17.8 W of absorbed pump power. The slope efficiency with respect to the absorbed pump power was 23.4%. Furthermore, with 17.8 W of diode pump power and the frequency-doubling crystal LiB 3 O 5 (LBO), a maximum output power of 572 mW in the blue spectral range at 471 nm has been achieved, corresponding to an optical-t… Show more

“…The pump source was an all-solid-state continuous-wave frequency-doubled Nd:GSAG-LBO 471 nm blue laser which allowed us to reach nearly 3.1 W at 471 nm. This blue laser was first published by Li et al [24]. In our experiment, F was a focus lens with the focal length of 70 mm, which was used to enhance the density of pump power and obtain better volume matching between the pump and oscillating beam.…”

“…The other way is to develop lasers emitting at the lowest wavelength possible in the near infrared [2] and to perform nonlinear conversion. Various solid lasers in blue spectra range [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] have been obtained by nonlinear conversion of the transi tion of solid lasers [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27]. These blue lasers are effi cient and powerful, nevertheless their wavelengths are too high compared to the 442 nm He-Cd laser.…”
