Abstract
We report on a diode pumped Q-switched yellow-orange laser, with intracavity sum-frequency generation, in a periodically poled KTiOPO4 crystal in a diode-pumped Q-switched dual-wavelength laser at 1064 and 1342 nm. The conversion efficiency is measured as a function of crystal temperature, incident pump power, and pulse repetition rate. Under optimal phase-matching conditions, the highest yellow-orange average power was 610 mW at a pump power of 17 W.
