Abstract
We present a compact efficient eye-safe intracavity optical parametric oscillator pumped by a passively Q-switched Nd:YAG laser in a shared cavity configuration. A signal pulse of energy at a wavelength with a peak power of was achieved. The effective conversion efficiency with respective to the optimized Q-switched pulse energy was as high as 51%.
