Abstract: The 90° phase-matching SHG is performed for microsecond single pulses from a Nd³⁺:YAP laser in a KTP crystal with the 29% conversion efficiency. The 90° phase-matching temperature is 54°C. The crystal surface damage threshold measured without and with an antireflection coating was 107 ± 11 and 40 ± 4 J cm^-2, respectively.
