摘要：
We have developed a monolithic wavelength converter which is composed of optically contacted KTiOPO4 and GdxY1-xCa4O(BO3)(3). It generates an ultraviolet (UV) light at 0.355 mu m just by the incidence of a near-infrared laser at 1.064 mu m. Moreover, the converter is attached to the end of an optical fiber which is delivering a near-infrared light to fabricate an extremely compact UV laser. A palm-size UV laser generates an output power of 120 mW at a repetition rate of 60 kHz.
