A beam-shaped 20-W diode bar has longitudinally pumped a Nd:YAG laser in a ring configuration. Unidirectional single-frequency operation is enforced by a Faraday rotator. Intracavity frequency doubling with a KTP crystal has produced 3 W of stable single-frequency TEM{sub 00} output at 532 nm. {copyright} {ital 1996 Optical Society of America.}
