ABSTRACT:
A diode-pumped monolithic laser is fabricated from a self-doubling host material co-doped with two ionic species, where one ionic dopant converts pump radiation to continuous radiation at a fundamental frequency and the other dopant acts as a saturable absorber to Q-switch the fundamental radiation which is then frequency doubled to produce pulsed high-intensity green light, the green light being either outputted or further frequency-doubled, into pulsed coherent UV radiation, by means of a non-linear crystal.
