Abstract

This letter reports the CW red laser radiation at 659.5 nm by intracavity frequency doubling a side pumped Nd:YAG laser with a KTP crystal (type II phase match, Θ=59.8°, Φ=0°). The thermal lens effect related to the laser crystal is analyzed and parameters of the three-mirror folded cavity are calculated. To enhancing the high gain at 1319 nm of the operating wave of Nd:YAG, the reflectivity of the mirrors is designed, and the red laser radiation at 659.5 nm is achieved by intracavity frequency-doubling. The generation of 1.2 W of the CW red laser beam is obtained with 260 W pumped power.
