Stable high-power operation in the uv is achieved from a commercial multi-kHz diode-pumped multimode Q-switched Nd:YAG laser by fourth-harmonic generation in an external cavity. Over 640 mW at 266 nm in a TEM00 beam and an internal conversion efficiency of 30% were obtained. A lifetime of one-billion shots at several hundred mW and a long-term power stability of ±1% were recorded, demonstrating that this source has the potential of stable long-term operation using readily available components. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
