A new cw laser with self-frequency doubling and summation of 1-{mu}m oscillation ({sup 4}F{sub 3/2} {yields} {sup 4}I{sub 11/2}) was constructed on the basis of an orthorhombic Nd{sup 3+}:Ba{sub 2}NaNb{sub 5}O{sub 15} crystal. The {sup 4}F{sub 3/2} {yields} {sup 4}I{sub 13/2} inter-Stark transition was used to excite cw 1.3-{mu}m stimulated emission from this ferroelectric. (letters to the editor)
