Hi Craig,
I would like to be in the "Thousands" range. Thus, I will not go for THG
(or FHG) of a 840 nm (or 1064 nm) ps or fs pulsed laser. I am also aware
of a few options for the pulsed LED in the 280 nm range. But their maximum
output power is only a few uW. I am OK with a CW LED if the power is in
the mW range. Thanks.
Sheng
