I'm interested in finding info on how large KTP crystals typically are in DPSS lasers for high output power levels of green. Does anyone know how large KTP crystals normally are in the China DPSS lasers for 10 watts of green CW output?
I found this info on Sam's Laser FAQ which gives me a great amount of info, but doesn't tell me the sizes we might find in commercial DPSS lasers at various rated output levels such as 5, 10, 25 and 50 watts. However, it appears a hydrothermal grown 3x3x7mm KTP crystal can do a whole lot of CW power input, far more than I'd be working with to produce 10 watts of green:

On another subject, has anyone here ever heard of directly pumping a KTP crystal with a 1064nm laser diode like this one? Curious how well that might work out.
