Abstract :
Tunable UV radiation with an output power of 30 μW is generated in the range from 334 to 340 nm by single-pass frequency doubling of 400 mW of diode laser radiation in an LiIO3 crystal. The diode source is an external-cavity AlGaInP laser (668-680 nm), which is amplified in a tapered semiconductor amplifier
