摘要
An actively Q-switched Nd:GSAG laser with 942nm wavelength was frequency doubled in a critically type-I phase-matched LBO. Maximum pulse energy of 8mJ with 300ns pulse duration at 471 nm was obtained with 19mJ incident radiation at 10Hz. The corresponding conversion efficiency was 42%. The frequency doubling of a focused Gaussian beam involves spatially dependent phase mismatching due to beam divergence. It decreases the conversion efficiency and deteriorates the beam quality. According to the theoretical calculation, elliptical focusing was used to improve the second harmonic beam quality and slightly increase the conversion efficiency.
