Abstract
Efficient nanosecond stimulated Raman scattering is observed in KTiOAsO4 within an intracavity Raman laser configuration. A diode-end-pumped acousto-optically Q-switched Nd:YAG laser emitting at 1064.2 nm is employed as the pumping source. And efficient generation of the first-Stokes line at 1091.5 nm is observed. With an incident diode power of 8.11 W, a first-Stokes power of 1.38 W is obtained at a pulse repetition rate of 25 kHz, corresponding to a diode-to-Stokes conversion efficiency of 17%. The pulse width is 6.5 ns and the peak power is 8.5 kW. The performance characteristics of the device demonstrate that KTiOAsO4 is competent and reliable for nanosecond Raman lasers. © 2009 Springer-Verlag.
