Abstract : We present what is, to the best of our knowledge, the first diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser emitting at 899 nm and below, based on the 4F3/2−4I9/2 transition, generally used for a 946 nm emission. A power of 630mW at 899 nm has been achieved in cw operation and 16mW at 884 nm with a fiber-coupled laser diode emitting 9W at 808 nm. Intracavity second-harmonic generation in cw mode has also been demonstrated with a power of 100mW at 450 nm by using a LiB3O5 nonlinear crystal
