Abstract: We have succeeded in generating the second harmonic of the radiation from a DF laser for the first time, using single crystals of ZnGeP₂. For crystals with lengths of 10.1 and 13.6 mm, the overall external efficiencies of the entire oscillator system were 4 and 6.2%. The internal efficiencies of second-harmonic generation in the crystals were 7.6 and 11.8%, respectively.
