CONTINUOUS 0.532-μ SOLID-STATE SOURCE USING Ba2NaNb5O15

Abstract
A continuous 0.532‐μ solid‐state source utilizing the nonlinear material Ba2NaNb5O15 inside the cavity of a 1.064‐μ YAlG:Nd laser has generated 1.1 W of coherent green power. This represents 100% conversion to the green of the available infrared radiation from the YAlG:Nd laser utilized.
