Abstract

The invention relates to an ultraviolet frequency-doubling laser comprising a semiconductor laser, an optical coupling system and a laser cavity. The laser cavity includes a laser gain medium, a frequency-doubling crystal and an ultraviolet frequency-doubling crystal, wherein a transparent Walk-off crystal for ultraviolet changes the polarization direction of the frequency-doubling light and isolates the optical component such as laser gain medium which is easy to damage by ultraviolet in one end of the transparent Walk-off crystal for ultraviolet, thereby preventing the whole laser from ultraviolet damage and achieving frequency-doubling in the ultraviolet cavity.
