Abstract :
We have developed a source of 515 nm light by frequency doubling the amplified ouput of an ytterbium-doped fiber laser with a periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystal. We present here the main characteristics of the laser and the frequency doubling system, permitting to obtain 22 mW of green radiation in single pass
