Abstract
We report the results obtained with two Ce:LiCAF UV tunable laser devices: a high repetition rate (100Hz-4 kHz) laser, which achieved one of the highest values of slope efficiency ever reported for this laser (49±1%) using a sample grown by our group, and a high energy, low repetition rate device which achieved the highest pulse energy ever reported for a Ce:LiCAF laser pumped with a single beam. We extended the tuning range by mixing the output with the residual Nd:YAG fundamental.
