    Abstract: A gain medium is disposed between two mirrors to form a resonant cavity. The cavity length is selected so that the gain bandwidth of the gain medium is less than or substantially equal to the frequency separation of the cavity modes and such that a cavity mode frequency falls within the gain bandwidth. A nonlinear optical material is disposed either inside or outside the cavity to generate new laser wavelengths. The nonlinear optical material may be contained in a cavity which is resonant at the microchip laser frequency. Alternatively, the microchip laser may be tuned, for example thermally or by the application of a longitudinal or transverse stress, to the frequency of the resonant cavity. The laser is optically pumped by any appropriate source such as a semiconductor injection laser or laser array. Suitable gain media include Nd:YAG, Nd:GSGG and Nd pentaphosphate, and suitable non-linear optical material include MqO:LiNbO.sub.3 and KTP.

    Abstract translation: 增益介质设置在两个反射镜之间以形成谐振腔。 选择腔长度使得增益介质的增益带宽小于或基本上等于腔模的频率间隔,并且使得腔模式频率落入增益带宽内。 非线性光学材料被设置在空腔的内部或外部以产生新的激光波长。 非线性光学材料可以包含在以微芯片激光频率谐振的空腔中。 或者,微芯片激光器可以例如通过加热或通过施加纵向或横向应力来调谐到谐振腔的频率。 激光器由任何适当的光源泵浦,例如半导体注入激光器或激光器阵列。 合适的增益介质包括Nd:YAG,Nd:GSGG和Nd五磷酸盐,合适的非线性光学材料包括MqO:LiNbO3和KTP。
