Guionie, Marie. "Lasers à fibres bifréquences bipolarisations : stabilisation et montée en fréquence du battement." Thesis, Rennes 1, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020REN1S059.
Full textThis work is about dual-polarization dual-frequency fibers lasers. The control of the frequency difference of these lasers is a major challenge in microwave photonics. Controlling the beat frequency could allow compact and low-noise sources, in order to develop applications in metrology or telecom. Here, we focus on 1.5 μm sources, in either DFB or DBR configurations, made of Er-doped or co-doped Er:Yb silica fibres. Their beat frequency is about 1 GHz for DFB lasers, and 100 MHz for DBR lasers. This thesis investigates several methods to stabilize the beat note, then to modify the fiber birefringence, to increase the beat frequency. First, an optical phase-locked loop method is used to lock the beat note on a frequency reference. By using the pump diode as an actuator, we have successfully stabilized beat frequencies between 300 MHz and 10 GHz for days. We then study a stabilization method by frequency-shifted optical feedback. A theoretical model based on rate equations model is used and allows to retrieve the experimental observations. We observe different dynamical regimes by locking the beat note on a reference frequency. In the stable area, we reduce the phase noise to −100 dBc/Hz at 1 kHz from the carrier. Next, we have mixed the set-up of the injection-locking to a delay line, in order to effectively stabilize the beat note on itself. Finally, various approaches have been explored to increase the beat frequency of DBR lasers, to the needs of applications. It has been possible to continuously monitor the impact of a UV beam on the fiber birefringence. We also studied a method for reversible modification of the birefringence, exploiting the elasto-optical effect. Regardless of the method used, we observed an increase in the beat frequency from 100 MHz to more than 10 GHz in the best case

Full textLong term stabilised lasers are used in a multitude of metrological applications and are the basis of experimental research in very high resolution spectroscopy. This document describes my thesis work on stabilised Nd:YAG lasers in view of space applications (for fundamental physics experiments and geodesy). All experiments must satisfy criteria of compactness, mechanical stability, robustness and reliability. I will describe the possible references for the long (molecules) and the short (resonators) term time intervals with their principal limitations. The discussion leading to their choice is actually connected to the stabilisation techniques to be adequately implemented (PDH, Tilt-Locking, Modulation transfer). Among the stabilisation techniques, the Pound-Drever-Hall (PDH) technique is now a classic as it produces the best performance in short term, so far. To reduce active components, we have also implemented a DC technique called Tilt-Locking and I will compare with PDH in the case of a monolithic Fabry-Perot reference. Theoretical performances on the long term and quantum efficiencies will be compared for different techniques. The schematic principles of the experiences and the results I have obtained for stabilised lasers on Fabry-Perot and molecular iodine are presented. We calibrated the Fabry-Perot drifts, this allows me to point out analytical and numerical solutions to control the length of this mechanical reference. Finally suggestions for further work will be approached and, in the appendices, details about noise order of magnitudes for LISA, a theoretical overview of gravitational waves as well as different simulations and calculations are presented

Full textAs part of the LISA mission using interferometry to detect gravitational waves, a frequency pre-stabilization of the lasers is required. The frequency reference currently planned to use is a Fabry-Perot cavity. The choice of this technique is mainly due to the simplicity, compactness and frequency stability performance of such a System. However, this System needs high thermal stability requirements and does not provide information on the absolute value of the laser frequency. It is moreover always advisable in a space project to have an alternative method compatible with the requirements of the mission. Consequently, the work presented in this manuscript describes the use of a hyperfine transition of the di-iodine (I2) molecule as a frequency reference. This method of controlling a Nd: YAG laser, widely used in metrology, has already demonstrated frequency stability performance betterthan those required for the LISA project. Following some preliminary studies, we have adapted such a stabilization System to space constraints. The implemented System presents performances of frequency stability of about 30Hz / V Hz to 10 mHz with an noise increase at lower frequencies. It therefore meets the constraints set by the mission. A System characterization and its main sources of perturbations (related to ambient temperature ~2kHz/K, beams misalignments ~16kHz/mrad,. . . ) is also given in the manuscript. This study has strengthened the attractiveness of locking a Nd: YAG laser on the molecule of di-iodine for a space mission (especially LISA)

Full textThis manuscript details the transfer of an ultra-stable optical frequency reference by means of an optical link and its application to the phase-lock of a mid-infared laser. An optical fiber link allows the ultra-stable transfer of a frequency by using a scheme wich compensates the propagation noise. We extended this system to longer links, and transferred the optical frequency reference simultaneously witn internet data. A cascaded link of 300 km and a simple link of 540 km had been demonstrated with a stability of 10⁻ ¹⁹ at 10⁴ s. Such a link as been used to lock a CO² laser at LPL, emitting at 10 µm, to a frequency reference developed at LNE-SRTE, Observatoire de Paris. This reference is an ultra-stable laser, emitting at 1.54 µm, the frequency of wich is measured against the primary standards of LNE-SYRTE by using a femtosecond laser. This reference is tranferred by an optical link to LPL, in order to stabilize the repetition rate of a second femtosecondlaser and to measure or control the frenquency of a CO² laser. When the CO² laser is locked to a molecular reference (OsO₄), the stability is 4.10⁻¹⁴ at 1s. The performances are even better when the CO² laser is locked directly to the optical reference. Then the laser coulb be used for the experiment of observation of the parity violation in chiral molecules, in progress at LPL. This shows the feasability of high resolution molecular spectroscopy experiments in laboratoratories in wich there is no primary standards

Full textWe report our work on diode laser frequency stabilization emitting near 850 and 1300 nanometers. In first, we demonstrate a single-mode operation from an initially multimode diode laser with an optical feedback on an external mirror. Secondly, a confocal Fabry-Perot cavity is used to feedback the beam from the diode laser and provide resonant optical stabilization of the semiconductor laser. We present a detailed theoretical analysis of the static and dynamic frequency noise power spectrum of the coupled cavity laser field. Experimentally we achieve static frequency noise reduction of 50-60 dB and obtain a dramatic reduction of the laser line with from 20 MHz to a few kHz. The frequency tenability of these coupled cavity diode lasers are achieved by a double servo-loop system and we have obtained a continuously frequency tuning of 7 GHz without laser spectral purity degradation. Applications of these techniques include optical pumping Cesium docks and frequency synthesis in the visible

Full textIn this thesis, we study a magneto-optical trap (MOT) of ytterbium (Yb) atoms built to perform experiments aiming at observing the localization of light in three dimensions (3D). Anderson localization, i.e. the absence of diffusion due to disorder, was believed to be an ubiquitous wave phenomenon; however, recently, its mere existence for light waves is being questioned. The experimental observation of 3D localization of light has been intensively sought since the 1980s, and recently, cold atoms have emerged as promising samples to investigate it. Yb atoms are good candidates for the observation of localization effects due to the non-degenerate ground state for the bosonic isotopes and the linewidth of the ¹S₀ − ³P₁ intercombination line (182 kHz), which is a good compromise between having negligible Doppler broadening and the possibility of performing time-resolved detection techniques. We present a relatively compact experimental setup used to load up to 1 × 10⁹ atoms in a MOT operating in the ¹ S₀ − ¹ P₁ transition without the use of a Zeeman slower. Particularly, the laser system that provides 2.5 W at 399 nm is discussed since high powers are needed due to the high saturation intensity of the transition. A detailed explanation of the system used to transfer up to 2 × 10⁸ atoms from the MOT loaded in the ¹ S₀ − ¹ P₁ transition to the ¹S₀ − ³P₁ transition is provided, with special attention to the setup used for laser frequency stabilization. We employ modulation transfer spectroscopy and balanced detection, enabling us to utilize a relatively weak yet convenient transition of molecular Iodine (¹²⁷I₂) as a frequency reference. We provide a characterization of the laser frequency stability, as well as of the ¹²⁷I₂ line itself. A dense atomic cloud is obtained, which can be used to perform experiments on collective effects in cold atomic samples. Ideas for the optimization of the current setup in view of the observation of localization of light are discussed. Finally, calculations of the position-dependent diffusion coefficient based on the self-consistent theory of localization are detailed for 2D systems. We compare the results obtained for different system sizes and disorder. These calculations will be used to study signatures of light localization in 2D, but they also pave the way for their extension into three dimensions, which could be used to interpret future exper- iments performed in the setup

Full textQuantum degenerate gases of neutral atoms are excellent systems with important applications in the study of many body quantum physics, condensed matter physics, precision measurements, and quantum information processing. In this thesis we demonstrate the creation of 87Rb Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) in different transverse modes of a bow-tie cavity. The cavity resonant at two wavelengths, 1560 and 780 nm. We are using the radiation 1560 nm accessible in telecom (C band) to create BEC in the cavity enhanced optical dipole trap with only 3 W of optical power from the source. The non-degenerate cavity modes enable the creation of arrays of BECs in the higher transverse modes. As representative examples we realize the BEC in the fundamental TEM00 and the TEM01 mode of the cavity which are the single well and double well trapping configuration with ultra-cold atomic simple well coupled to the cavity modes. By controlling the relative power between the fundamental and the higher transverses cavity modes (TEM01, TEM10), splitting and merging of ultra-cold atomic ensemble is shown. Moreover, in this manuscript we present the development of a lock system around the optical cavity which allows us to obtain both radiations locked to the cavity as well as the lengthe of the optical resonator is referenced on the rubidium atoms. The second wavelength is derived from 1560 nm beam by frequency doubling and then both radiations are locked to the cavity by Pound-Drever-Hall technique. One part of the frequency doubled 780 nm is referenced to an independent 780 nm laser locked on the rubidium atoms. The beat signal between these two lasers is frequency synthesized and through the PI controller is sent to the piezo-electric transducer driver to avoid long-term drifts of the cavity due to temperature fluctuations. The cavity resonance at 780 nm will be used as a probe beam for cavity aided quantum non-demolition measurements to generate measurement induced spin squeezed states

Full textStimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) is a coherent interaction process in which light is scattered from optically generated acoustic waves. It is a powerful tool for microwave and optical signal processing, distributed sensing and spectroscopy. Brillouin lasers are attracting a lot of interest for their ability to produce ultra coherent linewidths. This thesis is devoted to the understanding of noise properties of Brillouin fiber ring lasers, operating with multiple Stokes orders. First, we present a technique based on the cavity ring-down method, which allows to characterize the Brillouin gain coefficient directly from probing the laser cavity. Its advantages are to obtain parameters from a single experiment with low optical powers (some 10 milliwatts) for short cavities (a few meters long, or integrated cavities). Secondly, it is shown that an intrinsic linewidth of a few tens of mHz can be easily obtained by cascading two non-resonant Brillouin lasers (for which the pump performs a single pass inside the cavity). In order to obtain these results, the long-term stability has been improved by using a Pound-Drever-Hall servo loop, which allows us to compare our analytical and experimental results. Unfortunately, we were unable to explore the fundamental limits of noise reduction due to the noise floor of our bench. Thirdly, one of the major works of this thesis is the theoretical and experimental study of the noise properties, including frequency noise and relative intensity noise, of a resonant Brillouin laser (for which pump and Stokes waves are resonant inside the cavity). In particular, the impacts of the fiber-ring-cavity quality factor, Brillouin gain detuning, are evaluated very precisely on the laser RIN features such as amplitude noise reduction and relaxation frequency. We emphasize the fact that many characteristics of the frequency noise are related to the RIN properties by a coupling between intensity and phase. We show that the cascade process modifies the dynamics of the Brillouin laser when compared to those of a single-mode Brillouin laser with a single first-order Stokes component. Our experimental results are in excellent agreement with our numerical simulations, obtained thanks to our non-linear system describing the operation of a multi-Stokes Brillouin laser. This good match is mainly due to our ability: to obtain very precise values of the cavity parameters and the Brillouin gain coefficient using the CRDM technique ; to achieve long-term stability (hours); to finely control the detuning between the laser Stokes resonance and the frequency of the Brillouin gain maximum. We demonstrate experimentally for the first time that frequency noise is degraded in the presence of anti-Stokes Brillouin scattering. We also show that a gain detuning of the order of a few hundred kHz can degrade the intensity noise reduction or also increase the linewidth by amplitude-phase coupling. All these very fine observations thus allow us to set the fundamental limits of such laser systems such as: the increase in noise due to anti-Stokes orders; the role of pump noise and its possible interrelation with cavity finesse; the effect of the detuning inherent to higher Stokes orders. All these conclusions are key to the design and engineering of these Brillouin fiber lasers, which are currently attracting a great deal of interest as evidenced by the work in progress in the scientific community. This PhD thesis contributes to a better understanding of multi-Stokes Brillouin lasers

Full textThe thesis consists in developing a high-resolution mid-infrared spectrometer traceable to primary frequency standards and providing a unique combination of resolution, tunability, detection sensitivity and frequency control. A quantum cascade laser (QCL) emitting at 10.3 µm is phase locked to an optical frequency comb stabilized to a remote 1.55 µm ultra-stable reference developed at LNE-SYRTE, monitored against primary frequency standards and transferred to LPL via an active noise compensated fibre link. This results in a 0.1 Hz QCL linewidth, a stability below 10⁻¹⁵ at 1 s and an uncertainty on its absolute frequency below 4 × 10⁻¹⁴. Moreover, the setup allows the QCL to be widely scanned over 1.4 GHz while maintaining the highest stabilities and precision. This QCL was used to carry out saturated absorption spectroscopy of several molecules in a compact multipass cell. We demonstrated statistical uncertaintyon line-center frequencies at the kHz level and sub-10 kHz systematic uncertainty. We have recorded several singular K-doublets and many rovibrational transitions of methanol, in particular weak transitions and weak doublets - unreported so far. Precise parameters modelling trioxaneh ave been determined with only a few tens of rovibrational transitions recorded at unprecedented accuracy. The quadrupole hyperfine structure of an ammonia transition has been resolved for thefirst time. This setup constitutes a key element for the project aiming at the first observation of parity violation in molecules currently held at LPL, and, more generally, for various fields of physics, from atmospheric and interstellar physics to fundamental physics beyond the standard model

Full textI report in this manuscript a theoretical and experimental study of a compact, reliable and low cost source of 30 Hz linewidth, continuous and coherent electromagnetic waves tunable from 1 GHz to 500 GHz in steps of 1 GHz. These waves are generated by photomixing two distributed feedback (DFB) laser diodes at 1550 nm which are frequency stabilized with orthogonal polarizations on the same optical fibered Fabry-Perot cavity. I have designed very fast electronic control filters for each laser allowing a 7 MHz servo bandwidth limited by the loop length. I demonstrate phase noise suppressions down to -60 dBc/Hz at 1 kHz and -90 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset frequencies from a 92 GHz electrical carrier. I also measure a ~170 kHz frequency drift of the beat note at 10 GHz on the long term over a continuous 7.5 hour locking period. I show an optimized design of an integrated servo loop of few tens of cm length which reduces the phase noise by 18 dB at 1 MHz optical carrier offset frequency and the phase-amplitude couplings in the cavity by a factor of 50 compared to the experimental one. The addition of a third DFB laser phase stabilized on a local oscillator allows the possibility to have continuously tunable source over 1 THz. The continuous wave source also makes it possible to generate fixed repetition rate pico- or femtosecond pulses from highly non-linear and dispersive fibers, replacing the DFB lasers by further stable lasers. I have calculated by simulation 7.2 fs temporal jitter at 40 GHz repetition rate over a 1 ms integration time

Full textIn this thesis, we study several methods to improve atom interferometers. In the first part of the manuscript, we analyze how a nondestructive detection, that preserves the coherence between the internal degrees of freedom in an atomic ensemble, can be used to increase the sensitivity of interferometers. We first theoretically show how the projection of the wave-function induced by the measurement prepares spin-squeezed states. We then present the implementation of this method with a detection based on the frequency modulation spectroscopy. Finally, some first applications are described, more explicitly we show how to implement a quantum feedback that preserve the atomic state against the decoherence induced by a random collective flip, we also introduce a phase-locked loop where the atomic sample is used as the phase reference. In the second part of the manuscript, we present the all-optical realization of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a high-finesse cavity using a laser system based on standard telecoms technologies. We first describe the resonator and the frequency lock of the laser on the resonance, in particular, we introduce a new stabilization method based of the serrodyne modulation. Finally, we show how the condensate is obtained from the evaporation in the cavity mode

Full textTout d'abord, nous étudions les conditions requises pour garantir une oscillation monomode stable en absence de cristal. Les processus non-linéaires induisant des mélanges d'ondes (hole bur-ning spectral, échauffement des porteurs et pulsations de la densité de porteurs) et donc des coupla-ges entre modes sont étudiés et pris en compte pour modéliser les conditions de sauts de modes.
Ensuite, nous modélisons le filtre photoréfractif. Son principe de fonctionnement est le sui-vant : la figure d'onde stationnaire du mode est reproduite dans le volume du cristal sous la forme d'une modulation d'indice qui correspond donc à un réseau de Bragg et agit comme un filtre spec-tral. Une stabilisation du mode oscillant est obtenue grâce à l'effet combiné de ce filtre adaptatif et du filtrage passif de la cavité étendue (réseau monté en configuration Littman).
Puis, nous présentons les améliorations apportées par cette technique de filtrage auto-organisable. Expérimentalement, nous démontrons que, grâce une prévention efficace des sauts de modes et des fonctionnements multimodes, une oscillation monomode stable peut être maintenue pour des puissances supérieures à celles atteignables en absence de cristal. Enfin, nous confrontons les mesures aux modélisations de la cavité auto-organisable où les phénomènes de couplage de mo-des et le filtre photoréfractif sont pris en compte simultanément.

Full textOne limitation of the operation of large power lasers chains such as Laser MegaJoule, is the issue of laser damage of optical components. Different physical phenomena which depend on both the properties of materials, their conditions of manufacture / preparation and laser irradiation parameters can lead to damage initiation on the surface or in the volume, which will grow under successive irradiation. This effect limits the output power, affects the lifetime of the optical components and the maintenance cost of the laser. It can also cause serious safety problems. To address this issue and increase the lifetime of fused silica components, a laser process called "stabilization" is studied in this thesis, the aim being to treat the damage sites to stop their growth under repeated pulses for recycling damaged optics. This process consists of melting, followed by local evaporation by localized energy deposition by a CO2 laser beam of the damage site. We focused particularly on the stabilization of silica components by a micromachining process using a CO2 laser in order to treat millimeter size damages. This technique is based on fast micro-ablation of the silica during which the laser beam is scanned on the component surface to form an adjustable form of crater (typically conical) including the damaged site. A bench of experiments has been set up at the Fresnel Institute to develop and study this process. Various numerical and experimental works were also conducted to validate and optimize the technique. Our work has shown the efficiency of this micro-machining process by CO2 laser to stop the growth of damage to several hundred microns wide and deep. To achieve this goal we relied on modeling of physical phenomena involved in stabilization experiments using the COMSOL Multiphysics simulation software. First, the thermal model developed in this thesis is used to calculate the temperature distribution in the material during laser irradiation with or without movement of the beam. Combined with a thermodynamic approach, these thermal simulations can describe the transformation of silica during irradiation and predict the morphology of craters formed in the glass. Secondly, the mechanical part of the model can simulate the position and value of residual stress generated in the material around the crater after the temperature rise followed by rapid cooling. Other experiments on the treatment of fractures related to polishing on silica surfaces, or manufacturing defects on silica gratings are covered in this manuscript

In the fi#rst part, it treats the indirect internal observability and exact controllability of a weakly coupled hyperbolic system and of the Timoshenko system. The second part is devoted to the study of problems concerning the direct stabilization of the Bresse system by non-linear feedbacks using multiplier method and integral inequality techniques, and its indirect stabilization only by two locally distributed feedbacks at the neighborhood of the boundary using the frequency domain method. Is treated in this part also the indirect stabilization of the Timoshenko system subject to a single feedback locally distributed at the neighborhood of the boundary

Full textThis thesis describes the frequency stabilization of a 1.54 µm laser diode on an iodine hyperfine line at 514 nm, after a frequency tripling process.An important part of this work is dedicated to the development of the frequency tripling process of a 1.54 µm laser diode, using two periodically polled wave guided Lithium Niobate nonlinear crystals. A nonlinear conversion efficiency P3w/Pw > 36 % is obtained. This result is the best efficiency ever demonstrated for a CW frequency tripling process. 300 mW of harmonic power is generated at 514 nm from a fundamental optical power of 800 mW at 1.54 µm. The optical setup is fully fibered. The total power consumption of this frequency tripling process is 20 W only. Using a specific operation mode, this laser setup emits simultaneously three frequency-stabilized and intense radiations at 1.54 µm, 771 nm and 514 nm.Following this development, a very compact laser spectroscopy setup was built, based on a short sealed quartz cell, which contains the molecular iodine vapor. An optical power lower than 10 mW in the green is sufficient to carry out the iodine vapor interrogation, and to detect the hyperfine saturation transitions, which have a high quality factor around 514 nm (Q > 2x109).A frequency stability at the level of 4.5 x 10-14 τ-1/2 with a minimum value of 6 x 10-15 from 50 s to 100 s is demonstrated in this study. This frequency stability is the best result ever conferred to a laser diode at 1.54 µm, using in a simple way a Doppler-free iodine spectroscopy technique.This work has allowed to identify the major key components, in order to develop in the near future, a fully fibered and compact stabilized laser prototype occupying a total optical volume < 10 liters.Such a laser source could cover the needs of numerous space projects that require ultra-stable frequency optical links, inter-satellite or ground to space, for space geodesy (GRICE), Earth gravitational field measurement (GRACE-FO, NGGM), gravitational waves detection (LISA) , etc. …

Full textThe great stability of mode locked laser used as optical "clocks" allows the realization of analog to digital converters operating up to radio frequencies. In this work we consider more specifically the study the photoconductive sampling of signais between 10 and 20 GHz. The use of ultra fast semiconductor matériel (low temperature grown GaAs) allows us to obtain the required bandwidth while the signal propagation is achieved by a metallic microwave waveguide deposited on the semiconductor substrats. Our contribution consists in the modeling and understanding of physical phenomena involved, particularly in the lightsemiconductor interaction and their impact on device performance. For that, we have developed several analytical models of photoswitching process, sampling process and frequency response of samplers. Finally, a detailed study of the origin of nonlinearities in the electrical response of the samplers under illumination allowed us to demonstrate the feasibility of devices with an effective resolution of 6 bits at a frequency of 10 GHz

Full textThe influence of the aerodynamic behind a bluff-body on the stabilisation process of a non-premixed flame has been studied on a non-confined experimental set-up consisting of two concentric flows (fuel and air), for disk and tulip shape burners. Direct visualisations were performed and quantitative results have been obtained owing to a two-component laser Doppler Anemometer. Mean temperature and concentration fields were also investigated using a fine wire thermocouple and a gas analyser. The analysis of the flame development and structure has emphasised three main stabilisation regimes (development, ring flame, recirculating flame), two transition regimes and an extinction domain. To complete this analysis, a study of the "ring flame" regime has been developed. It pointed out that the ring is supposed to be a triple flame expanding at the interface between two flows : a premixed on composed of fuel, air and combustion products and the external air flow

Full textDeveloping a new laser source is a meticulous and time-consuming work. A large variety of parameters must be studied to obtain the wanted performances. In this work, we focused on the Relative Intensity Noise (RIN) of different lasers. Especially, we studied the second harmonic generation process and its influence on the laser RIN. For the needs of this work, we developed a numerical simulation model of a multimode fibre laser. It takes into account some needed features: the resolution of the laser field with amplitude and phase, the multimode behaviour, the spatial hole burning effect and the introduction of noise sources by adding Langevin forces. Studying the RIN after frequency doubling is done by squaring the field obtained by our numerical simulation. We found three different processes leading to an increase of the RIN at low frequencies after frequency doubling: a coupling between the less-noisy modes and the most-intense ones, the mode competition at low frequencies and, a transfer of the phase noise to the intensity noise. We have extended our study to semiconductor lasers. We used a pre-existing numerical simulation model and studied the RIN after frequency doubling for three different operating regimes. This study did confirm the reliability of the analysis developed in the fibre laser case and showed some differences between both lasers

Full textReplacement of dye lasers emitting in the range 550-570 nm, using solid state lasers, is a real industrial issue. There are many applications both in the field of biomedical research than in metrology. Some solutions have been developed for 561 nm and 553 nm. However, they do not provide fully integrated lasers emitting single-frequency continuous Gaussian beam with a power equal or up to 200 mW. In this work, we propose a theoretical and experimental study of solid monolithic cavity lasers based on Nd:YAG diode-pumped, frequency-doubled intra-cavity, using a non-linear crystal of KTP. These cavities, consisting of several crystals, are contacted by molecular adhesion. They contain no optical layout of the beams and they have the particularity of including a double Lyot filter. We present the results obtained with those cavities emitting at 561 nm for powers greater than 300 mW. Then, after a statistical study and analysis of test results of these cavities in the long term (> 6000 hours), we discuss about the potential problems of reliability and we suggest areas for improvement. For the first time, we show that the line at 1106 nm of the Nd: YAG can oscillate in this type of cavity. Then we demonstrate the feasibility of a compact single-frequency laser at 553 nm continuously, emitting a power of 200 mW to 500 mW with a conversion efficiency of pump / visible laser of about 19%. Finally, we show that it is possible, in cavities of this type, to oscillate the Raman lines from the lines of the fundamental and doubled frequency in intra-cavity. We open the door to a whole family of solid state lasers emitting in the range of 540-600 nm
