Abstract
We analyzed theoretically the conversion efficiency of a second harmon ic generation (SHG) in a copper vapor laser (CVL) at 510.6 nm using th e beta-BaB2 O-4 crystal and the anamorphic optics. It was found that a higher conversion efficiency compared with that of a conventional sph erical focus can be achieved using several anamorphic systems with dif ferent anamorphicities.
