Abstract :
Sum-frequency light in optical fibres, pumped by a Q-switched laser, was investigated. The 0.54 ¿m sum-frequency light, generated from a combination of a 1.064 ¿m pump light and the 1.12 ¿m first Stokes light, is observed above 80 W input power and found to increase with the square of the input power.
