Abstract

Sum frequency generation (SFG) is one of the attractive methods for blue lasing with easy performance.Focusing on SFG, particularly, pumped by a single laser diode and using KTP (KTiOPO4) grown in a tungustate flux, we studied the phase matching conditions and the achievable shortest wavelength.The phase matching angles of the SFG using a Nd : YAG laser (pumped by LD) and LD (0.809,ƒÊm) were ƒÆ= 90•K, ƒÓ=84•‹ or ƒÆ=74•K, ƒÓ =90•‹, which were slightly different from the reported ones (ƒÆ =90•‹, ƒÓ =90•‹).We could phase-match the system to a shorter wavelength, 0.452,ƒÊm, than those reported.
