Abstract
A microlaser is disclosed comprising: a gain medium having one face which is adapted be coupled to a source of optical pumping radiation and having an opposite face; harmonic conversion means having a close face which is located adjacent to and spaced apart from the opposite face of the gain medium and which is coated for high transmission at a fundamental and high reflectivity at a harmonic and having an opposite face which is coated for high transmission at the fundamental and some transmission at said harmonic; and polarization control means, located adjacent to and spaced apart from the opposite face of the harmonic conversion means, for controlling the polarization of the fundamental.
