  • Abstract
    Theoretical calculations on the nonlinear crystal potassium pentaborate tetrahydrate (PPT) indicate that frequency doubling may be achieved over a wide spectral region of fundamental wavelengths (434 to >700 nm) using a single crystal cut. To test these results, second-harmonic generation of the ruby laser and the argon laser was investigated.
