Characterization of single-crystal synthetic diamond for multi-watt continuous-wave Raman lasers [PDF]
A continuous-wave diamond Raman laser is demonstrated with an output power of 5.1 W at 1217 nm. This Raman laser is intracavity pumped by a side-pumped Nd:YLF rod laser: a 43-fold brightness enhancement between the Nd:YLF and diamond Raman lasers is ...

Generation of a 578-nm Yellow Laser by the Use of Sum-Frequency Mixing in a Branched Cavity
A compact, continuous-wave, solid-state laser at 578 nm has been demonstrated, for the first time to our knowledge, by use of intracavity sum-frequency mixing from a branched cavity with an LBO crystal. Two gain mediums, namely, the Nd:YAG single crystal
