Abstract
Efficient operation of a diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser at 938.5 nm is reported. A continuous wave output power of 3.9 W is obtained. Single-pass frequency doubling in periodically poled KTiOPO4 (KTP) delivered a power of 88 mW at 469 nm. By intracavity frequency doubling an output of 200 mW in the blue region is achieved
