Highly efficient wavelength conversion of Q-switched Nd:YAG lasers into a red wavelength

We report a nanosecond upconversion optical parametric oscillator which can convert the output of a Nd:YAG laser at 1064-nm wavelength into 627 nm with high efficiency. This device is based on a single KTiOAsO 4 crystal that is simultaneously phase matched for optical parametric generation and sum-f...
