Temperature nonuniformity occurring during the cooling process of a KDP crystal and its effects on second-harmonic generation
TL;DR: A comprehensive model incorporating principles of thermodynamics, mechanics, and optics is applied, and it demonstrates that the temperature nonuniformity has negative effects on the second-harmonic generation (SHG) of a high-average-power laser.
