title: 100 mW high efficient single pass SHG at 488 nm of a single broad area laser diode with external cavity using a PPLN waveguide crystal.
abstract: A frequency stabilized single broad area laser in a V-shaped external cavity is used for Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) in a waveguide channel with dimensions of 3 mum x 5 mum x 10 mm of a PPMgO: LN crystal. A maximum coupling efficiency of 63% could be obtained. An optical output power of 100.4 mW of visible light at 488 nm could be generated with 265 mW of coupled infrared light. This results in a single pass conversion efficiency of 37.8%. No photorefractive damage or saturation effects were observed.
