Both second harmonic generation (SHG) and fourth harmonic generation (PRIG) occurred in an external threemirrors ring cavity. The need for impedance matching of this cavity to the input radiation was eliminated and the cavity adaptation was simplified, because the mirrors were not highly reflecting at 1064 nm and the cavity resonates only at 532 rim. Experiment results demonstrate that the conversion efficiency of this external cavity is higher than that of the singlepass condition.展开更多
