We proposed a method to determine device quality in heat removal. Temperature change depending on SH power was analyzed by fitting with a new model to characterize heat removal performance of SHG modules, named as phase-matched calorimetry (PMC). The thermal disposal performance of SHG devices was improved by combination of metal housing and reduced crystal aperture. With a tight aperture, we demonstrated a 19 W single-pass 532-nm SHG at a conversion efficiency of 26.5% in a 10-mm-long PPMgSLT crystal without saturation.

We analyze a solution of the heat equation for second harmonic generation (SHG) with a focused Gaussian beam and simulate the temperature rise in SHG materials as a function of the second harmonic power and the focusing conditions. We also propose a quantitative value of the heat removal performance of SHG devices, referred to as the effective heat capacity Cα in phase matched calorimetry. We demonstrate the inverse relation between Cα and the focusing parameter ξ, and propose the universal quantity of the product of Cα and ξ for characterizing the thermal property of SHG devices.
