Abstract

An efficient and compact green laser at 523.5 nm was generated by intracavity frequency doubling of a diode end-pumped conductively cooled Q-switched Nd:YLF laser at 1047 nm. With an incident pump pulse energy of 28.6 mJ at 250 Hz repetition rate, pulse energy of 8 mJ was obtained with a pulse width of 10 ns, corresponding to an optical– optical conversion efficiency of 28%. The beam quality factors were M_x ²=1.35,M_y ² =1.21.
