Abstract—An efficient and compact red laser at 672 nm is generated by intracavity frequency doubling of a
continuous wave (CW) laser operation of a diode pumped Nd:LuVO4 laser at 1344 nm under the condition of
suppression the higher gain transition near 1064 nm. With 38 W diode pump power and a frequency doubling
crystal LBO, as high as 9.6 W of CW output power at 672 nm is achieved, corresponding to an optical-to-optical
conversion efficiency of 25.3% and the output power stability in 8 h is better than 2.38%. To the best of our
knowledge, this it the highest conversion efficiency of watt-level laser at 672 nm generated by intracavity fre-
quency doubling of a diode pumped Nd:LuVO4 laser at 1344 nm.
