“…It is believed that the present review for compact, efficient, high-power CW visible lasers will be of practical usefulness for applications such as medical treatment, biology, spectroscopy, and remote sensing. In addition to CW operation, an effective and reliable method for developing dual-wavelength passive Q-switched self-Raman lasers with controllable polarization has also progressed recently [49].…”

In this review, the developments of efficient high-power CW orange-lime-green lasers by using intracavity stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) in Nd-doped vanadate lasers are systematically discussed. The overall properties of the spontaneous Raman spectra in Nd:YVO4 and Nd:GdVO4 crystals are overviewed. The critical phase matchings of using the lithium triborate (LBO) crystals for sum frequency generation (SFG) and second harmonic generation (SHG) are thoroughly reviewed. We make a detailed review for achieving the individual green-lime-orange emissions from the self-Raman Nd:YVO4 and Nd:GdVO4 lasers with LBO crystals. The following is to review the dual-wavelength operations of the lime-green and orange-green lasers. Finally, the procedure for generating the triple-wavelength operation of orange-lime-green simultaneous emissions is completely described. The present review is expected to be useful for developing compact, efficient, high-power CW visible lasers for applications including medical treatment, biology, spectroscopy, and remote sensing.
