Abstract

We report the first all-solid-state tunable ultraviolet laser pumped by the fifth harmonic of a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. Our laser based on Ce3+:LiLuF4 active medium stably generates a single, satellite-free, 880-ps pulse under 5-ns, 10-Hz repetition rate pumping conditions. A novel tilted-incidence-angle side pumping scheme resulted in a very simple laser-cavity design.
