Abstract

Intra-cavity generation of second and higher harmonic frequency laser radiation is improved by inclusion of a lens or multiple-lens arrangement that focuses electromagnetic radiation emitted by the active laser medium on a wavelength conversion means within the cavity or on removal means to remove the second or higher harmonic radiation from the cavity.
