Abstract
We present a theoretical study of the single-mode operation in a diode pumped Nd:YVO4/KTP green laser by considering the combined action of the anisotropic emission cross-section of Nd:YVO4 and the KTP crystal acting as a birefringent filter. The influence of the KTP length on th e performance of single-mode operation was investigated. Comparison be tween theoretical predictions and experimental results is presented.
