Fourth Harmonic Generation

Fourth Harmonic Generation on OLAF-2 laser table. Commercial green light (532nm) pump laser excites invisible light (1300nm) which in turn, generates second harmonic in the LBO crystal.  The resulting 650nm red light passes through a BiBO crystal which produces invisible 325nm ultraviolet light. The 325nm light can be seen in the lower left as a blueish spot via photoluminescence.
