We report a high power quasi-continuous-wave (QCW) 620 nm laser from an external cavity diamond Raman laser utilizing intracavity frequency doubling in lithium triborate. Output power of 30 W for durations of 0.25 ms at 15% conversion efficiency was achieved with a beam quality factor M = 1.1 from a free-running Nd:YAG pump laser of M = 1.5. The critical design parameters that affect conversion efficiency and power were analysed with the aid of an analytical model. By adaptation to other pump technologies, the diamond approach provides a novel pathway towards high brightness CW beam generation in the visible and ultraviolet regions.

Objectives: Supervised toothbrushing programmes (STPs), whereby children brush their teeth at nursery or school with a fluoride toothpaste under staff supervision, are a clinically and cost-effective intervention to reduce dental caries. However, uptake is varied, and the reasons unknown. The aim was to use an implementation science approach to explore the perspectives of key stakeholders on the barriers and facilitators at each level of implementation of STPs.

Objectives: This study aimed to determine the prevalence and genotyping of human papillomavirus (HPV) and to assess co-infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in oral cavity and oropharyngeal cancers (OC and OPC) specimens from patients at a tertiary care hospital in Northeastern Mexico.

Methods: Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tumor specimens from 41 patients with OC and OPC were evaluated. HPV detection and genotyping were performed using the Ampliquality HPV-Type Express kit.

Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is an uncommon congenital disorder predominantly involving craniofacial, orbital, and otological structures. The various ear malformations seen in 9 patients with TCS are described. TCS predominantly affects the external and middle ear structures, with inner ear structures being relatively spared, not unexpected given the dual embryological origin of the human ear.

The study of gain clamping in broadband bismuth-doped fiber amplifiers (BDFA) not only helps to solve the gain instability problem due to the variation of the number of optical multiplexing channels but also is an effective way to extend the amplifier's operating bandwidth to improve the communication capacity. In this paper, we illustrate the advantages of linear cavity gain clamping through simulation. Using simulation to guide the experiments, we propose a BDFA with tunable linear-cavity gain clamping and incorporate a variable optical attenuator (VOA) in the linear cavity to enhance the flexibility of gain control.
