Abstract :
We review continuous-wave (CW) and pulsed yellow-orange lasers formed of a self-Raman crystal and an intracavity frequency-doubling crystal. Maximum CW and pulsed yellow-orange outputs of 140 mW and 264mW were observed, respectively. We also address thermal management to overcome the severe thermal loading in the self-Raman laser crystals.
