Abstract
An intelligent type II noncritically phase‐matched LiB3O5 optical generator pumped by 30 ps 355 nm laser pulse is reported. Tunable wavelengths of 482.6–415.9 nm (21–450 °C) with linewidths as low as 0.15 nm, a pump‐to‐signal energy conversion efficiency up to 37.6%, and 211 MW peak‐power single pulse have been achieved.Keywords
