304 mW green light emission by frequency doubling of a high-power 1060-nm DBR semiconductor laser diode

Abstract

We report for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, 304 mW green light emission generated by frequency doubling of the output from a 1060-nm DBR semiconductor laser using a periodically poled MgO-doped lithium niobate waveguide in a compact single-pass configuration. The excellent performance of these DBR lasers, including a kink-free power greater than 750 mW, single-spatial-mode output beam, single-wavelength emission spectra, and high wavelength-tuning efficiency, plays an important role in the generation of high-power green light.
