Abstract
The rapid development of infrared diode pump lasers and new laser materials have made the diode pumped solid state lasers efficient and reliable sources of coherent light. By now, these properties have led to the commercial availability of a number of systems. Due to the restricted wavelengths of diode pump light available today with high power, all simple three or four-level diode pumped solid state lasers emit in the near IR. Unfortunately, many technical applications, as high density optical storage and precision interferometric measurements ‚ rather require shorter wavelengths.
