For the most commonly used KTP frequency-doubling crystal, its temperature adaptability range should be effectively extended. For this purpose, a compromise design is given by compreflensively considering both its effective nonlinear coefficient and the half-width of temperature range. The design method of KTP frequency-doubling device with a wide temperature range is analyzed in detail; furthermore, the curves of effective nonlinear coefficients, acceptance angles, and walk-off angles as a function of phase-matching angle are plotted via computer simulation. According to the results of theoretical study, a device used in the temperature range from -20 ℃ to 50 ℃ is designed and validated experimentally by the KTP external cavity frequency-doubling laser. Experimental results indicate that a peak conversion efficiency of 22.7% at 15 ℃ with a 70 ℃ temperature halfwidth is achieved by using the designed device. Compared with the commonly designed KTP frequency-doubling device, the temperature adaptability range increases notably although its frequency conversion efficiency decreases a little. Additionally, the effective nonlinear coefficient is still bigger than that of the commonly used crystals such as LBO and BBO when temperature halfwidth increases to 70 ℃. The above method would have the potential for extending the temperature adaptability range of other frequency-doubling devices.
