Abstract
Non-critical phase-matching KTP OPO pumped by single-cell-SBS and dual-cell SBS phase-conjugation beam, which is generated by backward stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) on Nd:YAG laser as pumping source, is presented together with the maximum output energy 21 .6mJ and the corresponding conversion efficiency 32%. And it has obtained tunable pulse-width ranging from less than ins to 6ns and comparatively high conversion efficiency with a low-power pumping laser. The output character of this OPO is also analyzed with experiment results according to characteristics of long-pulse pumping OPO.
