Abstract

We report a compact green light source consisting of a 1060-nm DBR laser, a periodically poled lithium niobate crystal waveguide and an adaptive optic element consisting of a micro-electro-mechanical system actuator. Up to 350 mW optical power at 530 nm with the wallplug efficiency of up to 15% was demonstrated. The change in the optical power at constant current over the temperature range from 10°C to 70°C was less than 18%.
