摘要: In this paper, we report a CW blue laser emission by self-sum-frequency-mixing in NGAB crystal. 48 μW of 0.459 μm output power was obtained with the absorbed pump 0.99 W from Ti:sapphire laser, and threshold is about 100 mW. The results indicate that also promising candidate for source self-sum-frequency-mixing. efficiency can be further improved optimizing device parameters.
