Description: We report an efficient 1.485 μm external cavity diamond Raman laser operating on the 2nd Stokes shift of a 1.064 μm Nd:YAG pump laser. 1.63 W pulsed at 5 kHz is produced with a quantum conversion efficiency of 71% and excellent beam quality. Numerical modelling confirms that optimal operation is achieved with low output coupling reflectivity.
