The availability of laser radiation in new wavelengths is a research topic of permanent interest. Nonlinear optical frequency conversion of a primary laser radiation is one of the widely exploited resources for this purpose. Since the birth of nonlinear optics with the first demonstration of second harmonic generation of laser radiation, new ways and new materials are seek. Due to the inherent low conversion efficiency of nonlinear optical mixing related to the decreasing efficiency of higher order terms in the nonlinear Taylor expansion of the optical polarization with the electric field, second-order nonlinear optics referred to as three-wave mixing processes is in general preferred. It is well stated that nonlinear optical frequency conversion efficiency improves with increasing power density –and thus amplitudeof the primary optical field, material nonlinear response and interaction length as well as with providing a suitable phase relation among the interacting electromagnetic waves (Armstrong et al., 1962). It was soon realized that conversion of pulsed lasers that emit high peak power pulses could result efficient in a simple manner, by just single-passing the interacting waves through a suitable nonlinear medium, generally an anisotropic crystal.
