Abstract:
We propose and make a compact yellow-orange laser of the Nd-doped yttrium vanadate (Nd:YVO4)/periodically poled Mg-doped lithium niobate (PPMgLN) module by Raman frequency-doubling at 589 nm. By reasonably designing the size of the Nd:YVO4 and 5 mol% PPMgLN crystals, cavity length and coating parameter, a compact 589 nm laser module with a total size of 3 mm×10 mm×1.5 mm is fabricated. In the laser module, the input surface of Nd:YVO4 crystal is end-pumped by an 808 nm laser diode (LD). Under the effect of linear resonant cavity structure, the output surface of PPMgLN crystal with a period of 9.48 μm generates 589 nm yellow-orange light. The experimental results show that the maximum output power at 589 nm is 390 mW at the pump power of 3 W with the optical-optical conversion efficiency of 13% and the stability of the output power is less than 2% within 3 h.
