The output power in single frequency reached 752 mW , with 42% optical -optical efficiency and 54% slope efficiency . The laser linewidth was measured by delayed self -heterodyne interferometry technique . Linewidth decreased with increased pump power. The linewidth was smaller than 1 kHz with output power smaller than 200 mW , and the linewidth was 2.3 kHz at highest output power. Laser intensity noise was mainly attributed to relaxed oscillation. The relative intensity noise (RIN) decreased with increased p
