Stimulated Raman scattering in a potassium titanyl phosphate crystal: simultaneous self-sum frequency mixing and self-frequency doubling.
A potassium titanyl phosphate crystal is used to achieve efficient stimulated Raman scattering conversion with simultaneous self-sum frequency mixing and self-frequency doubling. Inside a diode-pumped Nd:YAG Q-switched laser cavity, 1.03 W of 1129-nm second Stokes average output power and 0.25 W of 548-nm sum-frequency average power are simultaneously generated with a diode input power of 10 W at a pulse repetition rate of 10 kHz.
