Abstract :
Summary from only given. We report on 100-hour high-power UV beam generation with high quality CsLiB/sub 6/O/sub 10/ (CLBO) crystal. We show the schematic drawing of the UV laser system which uses a high-quality CLBO crystal and a high-brightness 100-W Q-switched diode-pumped Nd:YAG green laser.
