Abstract
Compact, efficient visible lasers are important for heads up displays, pointing and illumination, undersea communications, and less than lethal threat detection. We report on high power red, green, and blue lasers with output powers above 3 watts and efficiencies greater than 20%, 15%, and 5% respectively.
