Abstract
We have compared the performance of pulsed eye-safe (1.576 μ) OPO resonators based on flux-grown KTP crystals in a plano-plano configuration with the monolithic and conventional external mirrors design. The former yields a higher frequency conversion efficiency of 40% and a slightly lower conversion threshold.
