Abstract

This paper discusses a diode-laser-array end-pumped Nd:YVO4/BIBO green laser. Using a three-mirror folded cavity (V-shaped), a 1.06 W CW green output was obtained at an incident pump power of 8.5 W; the corresponding optical conversion efficiency was 12.5%. The relationship between the green output and the temperature of the BIBO crystal was investigated. The laser damage threshold of BIBO crystal was measured to be 600 MW cm−2 and 400 MW cm−2 at 1064 nm and 532 nm, respectively.
