Abstract

Intracavity upconversion of a laser diode In a diode-pumped solid-state laser has recently been proposed as a technique for obtaining high modulation rates in the blue region of the spectrum.1·2 The high-intensity circulating field inside such a laser can be used to upconvert efficiently the signal from a relatively low-power laser beam. Modulation rates for the sum frequency output are determined by the dynamics of the single laser diode rather than those of the solid-state laser and can easily exceed several hundred megahertz.
