Abstract :
In this paper, we report 1.8% efficient, self-stimulating Raman output at 1181 nm (corresponding to the 901cm-1 Raman shift) from a transversely diode-pumped Q-switched Nd:KGW laser. The efficiency is the highest value, to our knowledge, obtained by transversely diode-pumped Nd:KGW Raman lasers.
