Abstract :
In this paper, we report 0.2 W yellow output from a transversely diode-pumped self-stimulating Nd:KGW Raman laser. The optical efficiency from the diode to yellow output was 3.3 %. This value is the highest, to the best of our knowledge, obtained by diode-pumped, self-stimulating Raman lasers.
