摘要
A simple method is presented to eliminate gray-tracking effects of KTP crystals using a strong focusing scheme. Experimental and theoretical studies on the gray-tracking effects are carried out. A 18 W green laser is demon-strated with a 9 kHz repetition rate, a beam quality factor of M^2 = 1.6 and a conversion efficiency of 44%.
