High power CW dye laser emission around 888 nm

Abstract
We report a maximum output power of 1.5 W at 888 nm from a HITC jet stream dye laser pumped by a Kr+ laser emitting 7 W on its red lines. The observed tuning range is 825-980 nm : the long wavelength limit is 40 nm above previously reported results. Good stability of the dye solution is observed over months of operation at full power
