Abstract :
CsB3O5 has been found to be phase matchable for SFG down to 0.185 μm by mixing the fifth harmonic of a Nd:YAG laser at 1.0642 μm and the output of a KTP parametric oscillator pumped by the second harmonic of the same Nd:YAG laser at 20.0°C. Improved Sellmeier´s equations and nonlinear optical constant of this crystal are reported
