Abstract

High-power red laser are of great interest in the fields of medical application, laser display and also as a pumping source for tunable lasers such as Cr:LiSAF. This letter reports the generation of a 12W Q-CW red laser beam by intracavity frequency-doubling of a Nd:YAG laser operating at 1.3μm with a KTP crystal. A laser module that consisting of a Nd:YAG rod side-pumped by thirty 20W LDs of a triangle radial pump geometry, a acousto-optic Q switch and a KTP crystal were used in the experiment. Because the efficiency of SHG is sensitive to the type II phase-matching angles of KTP, we calculate the value of phase-matching angles according to several of Sellemier equations of KTP, and modify the phase-matching angles to θ=59.9° and φ=0° by experiment. The maximum average power of 12W of red laser is achieved at 10KHz when the pump power of LDs is about 470 W.
