 Sam's Laser FAQ - Home-Built Diode Pumped Solid State (DPSS) Laser
For higher power using a wide stripe pump diode, bar, or array of bars, either a fiber-coupled or fiber bundled diode laser source with output focusing optics, or the use of a lens duct and HR mirror on the vanadate crystal would be needed.
The second-harmonic output power at 531 nm is 522 mW at 2.05 W incident pump power of the diode laser...
For the very high power lasers, an alternative to fiber-coupled pumps is to use a lens duct with stacked laser diode bars but that would require having the HR mirror on the rear of the vanadate since the working distance between a lens duct and lasing crystal must be short.

 US Open 2000 Finals by SquashTalk
Power served the ball up, seemingly casually, and the ball caught the nick at the back corner of the court and rolled out.
I, however was standing directly next to Power during this interlude, and from my vantage point, Power's shoes genuinely had failed, and Power was genuinely upset about the break in action and about the possibility of being defaulted if he couldn't obtain a replacement pair.
