High-peak-power 786 nm and 452 nm lasers based on 1064 nm intracavity-driven cascaded nonlinear optical frequency conversion
2020
We demonstrated high-peak-power 786 nm and 452 nm lasers based on 1064 nm intracavity-driven cascaded nonlinear optical frequency conversion (CNOFC). The 1064 nm fundamental wave generated from the LD-side-pumped Nd:YAG was first intracavity converted to 1572 nm by a noncritically phase-matched KTP OPO. Then a LBO-based second harmonic generation of 1572 nm was served as cascaded process to produce 786 nm laser radiation. The maximum average output power at 786 nm was 1.34 W, corresponding to a pulse peak power of 14.2 kW with 11.2 ns pulse width and 8 kHz pulse repetition rate. Furthermore, a third stage of sum frequency mixing between 786 nm and 1064 nm was designed to achieve the blue emission at 452 nm. The 452 nm blue laser delivers 263 mW, 6.2 ns pulses with a peak power of 5.3 kW, paving the way for achieving high-peak-power blue lasers.
