Generation of 14.0 W of single-frequency light at 770 nm by intracavity frequency doubling

We present a continuous, narrow-linewidth, tunable laser system that outputs up to 14.0 W at 770 nm. The light is generated by frequency doubling 18.8 W of light from a 1540 nm fiber amplifier that is seeded by a single mode diode laser achieving >74% conversion efficiency. We utilize a Lithium Triborate Crystal in an enhancement ring cavity. The low intensity noise and narrow linewidth of the 770 nm output are suitable for cold atom experiments.
