Output pulses were reduced by neutral density filter to 20 mJ at 730 nm (5 ns pulse width). The laser beam was depolarized to minimize the effects of optical anisotropy. The beam was focused on about 1.5 mm diameter at the crystal position. The crystal was irradiated for 4 h at room temperature. Review of optical parametric devices: Zhou, J. X.; Hou, X.; Yank, K.
