Abstract

We analyze a singly resonant frequency doubling laser in which the laser field is highly depleted by the conversion to the harmonic. We develop novel formulae including spatial evolution of light fields. The result predicts that the noise of the output would not reach the shot-noise limit if the nonlinearity of the frequency doubling is large compared with that of the laser gain saturation.
