Abstract

We report for the first time a coherent ultraviolet radiation at 336 nm by intracavity sum-frequency generation of a 912 nm Nd:GdVO4 laser and a 532 nm frequency doubling Nd:YVO4 laser. The ultraviolet laser is obtained by using a doubly resonator, type-I critical phase matching CsLiB6O10 (CLBO) crystal sum-frequency mixing. With a total diode pump power of 31.8 W (13.1 W pump power for 912 nm Nd:GdVO4 laser and 18.7 W pump power for 532 nm Nd:YVO4 frequency doubling laser), TEM00 mode ultraviolet laser at 336 nm of 93 mW is obtained. The power stability is better than 3.4% and laser beam quality M2 factors are 1.52 and 1.27 in both horizontal and vertical dimensions respectively.
