摘要：
We use a plane-wave analysis to examine a Raman oscillator containing an intracavity sum-frequency interaction that frequency sums the circulating first-order Stokes radiation with the pump radiation. We find that there is an optimum ratio between the nonlinear coupling in the Raman medium and the nonlinear coupling in the sum-frequency generator. We also find that higher order Stokes radiation should be suppressed with the optimum choice of nonlinear coupling in the sum-frequency interaction. Numerical integration of the equations containing transverse effects predicts a time-averaged power-conversion efficiency of 61.4% for conversion of 532- to 273.5-nm radiation using a CN mode-locked frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser with Ba(NO2)(3) for the Raman material and CsLiB6O10 (CLBO) for the sum-frequency material.
