Abstract

Continuous-wave red, green, and blue coherent light has been simultaneously generated by quasiphase matching in a strontium barium niobate crystal used as an intracavity frequency converter of a Nd:YVO4 laser operating at 1.34 μm. The broad distribution of ferroelectric domain sizes (1–8 μm) provides the possibility of different simultaneous frequency conversion processes without requiring angle or temperature tuning. Blue and red colors were generated by second-harmonic generation of pump (0.88 μm) and infrared (1.34 μm) laser radiation, respectively. Green light was produced by sum frequency mixing of pump and laser radiations.
