Abstract

Summary form only given. A cw all-solid-state laser system in the blue spectral region with an output power in the UV-range is an alternative for air cooled argon-ion laser systems and the most suitable light source for laser based display technologies. We report the generation of 1.3 W blue 473 nm radiation by intracavity frequency doubling in a LiB/sub 3/O/sub 5/ optical phase matching crystal of a Nd:YAG ground state laser.
