Abstract

We report a tunable, narrow linewidth and high beam quality continuous-wave (CW) yellow laser system at 589 nm. The system is an all solid-state design employing single-pass sum–frequency generation in a KTP crystal by mixing the 1064 nm with 1319 nm lines of two side-pumped Nd:YAG enforcing unidirectional ring lasers. With this method, a CW yellow laser at 589.159 nm with an output power of 0.8 W, a linewidth less than 1.5 GHz and a beam quality M 2 = 1.29 is obtained. The wavelength of the laser also can be precisely tuned from 589.112 to 589.181 nm in step-length of about 0.22 pm.
