Abstract We demonstrate a single-pass cw quasi-phase-matched (QPM) frequency doubling based on periodically poled MgO-doped stoichiometric lithium tantalate (PP-MgO:SLT) with crystal length of 20mm. For the maximum 1064nm fundamental power of 7.69W, the maximum conversion efficiency and the maximum output second-harmonic power are 11.8% and 905mW, respectively. In the experiment we found that the optimum temperature of the oven for PP-MgO:SLT should be adjusted with the change of the fundamental power and the focal length. In addition, angular acceptance bandwidth and temperature acceptance bandwidth are studied. Their experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical calculations.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
