Abstract Cr: Colquiriite laser materials (Cr: LiCAF, Cr: LiSAF, Cr: LiSGaF) own broad
absorption bands in the visible region that allow direct-diode pum** by well-developed …

We review the physical properties, linear and nonlinear optical characteristics, and phase‐
matching configurations of BiB3O6 (BIBO), the first low‐symmetry (monoclinic) inorganic …

We develop a simplified light source at 461 nm for laser cooling of Sr without frequency-
doubling crystals but with blue laser diodes. An anti-reflection coated blue laser diode in an …

This paper gives an overview of the results obtained with diode‐pumped Neodymium‐
doped crystals operating below 900 nm. Operation at such low wavelengths requires …

A continuously tunable high-power single-frequency 455 nm blue laser for high-state
excitation transition 6S_1/22↔ 7P_3/22 of Cs atoms was presented in this Letter, which was …

We report the implementation of a high-rate source of single-and two-photon states. By
combining the advantages of short pulses and cavities, heralding rates as high as 200 kHz …

The paper reports the efficient UV and terahertz generation from a 1.29 mm thick and Type I,
θ= 28.9^∘ cut BiB_3O_6 (bismuth triborate, BIBO) crystal using femtosecond and …

A wide variety of applications require high peak laser intensity in conjunction with a narrow
spectral linewidth. Typically, injection-locked amplifiers have been employed for this …

A high-power continuous-wave (CW) ultraviolet (UV) laser at 378 nm from an intracavity
frequency-doubled Alexandrite laser has been demonstrated with 638 nm fiber-coupled …

We experimentally demonstrate the second harmonic generation (SHG) of infrared
femtosecond pulses using a BIBO crystal placed in an external ring cavity, synchronized with …
