Quasi-phase-matched optical parametric amplification and oscillation in periodically poled LiNbO(3) waveguides.
We report quasi-phase-matched optical parametric amplification and oscillation in a periodically poled LiNbO(3) waveguide. Single-pass parametric gains of 4.1 dB, corresponding to 18%/W efficiency, were achieved at a signal wavelength of 1.55 microm with a pump wavelength of 782.2 nm. We formed a low-finesse cavity resonant at both signal and idler wavelengths by attaching mirrors to the wavegu...
متن کاملHigh-energy femtosecond pulse amlification in a quasi-phase-matched parametric amplifier.
A new type of solid-state femtosecond amplifier is demonstrated that is based on quasi-phase-matched parametric amplification. Such gain media are different from conventional solid-state amplifiers in that their amplification bandwidths and pump and signal wavelengths can be engineered. Furthermore, high gain is characteristic of parametric amplification, permitting extraction of high energies ...
متن کاملMonolithic quasi-phase-matched nonlinear crystal for simultaneous laser Q switching and parametric oscillation in a Nd:YVO4 laser.
We report the performance of a periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystal inside a diode-pumped Nd:YVO4 laser for simultaneous laser Q switching and optical parametric oscillation. The monolithic PPLN crystal consists of two sections, a 1-cm-long 14-microm-period electrode-coated section and a 4-cm-long 30-microm-period section, functioning as a low-voltage Pockels cell and a quasi-phase...
متن کاملIntracavity terahertz-wave generation in a synchronously pumped optical parametric oscillator using quasi-phase-matched GaAs.
We generated 1 mW of average output power at 2.8 THz (bandwidth of approximately 300 GHz) in a diffraction-limited beam by placing a 6-mm-long quasi-phase-matched GaAs crystal inside the cavity of a synchronously pumped optical parametric oscillator (OPO). The OPO used type-II-phase-matched periodically poled lithium niobate as a gain medium and was pumped by a mode-locked laser at 1064 nm, wit...
متن کاملEfficiency and phase of optical parametric amplification in chirped quasi-phase-matched gratings.
Three-wave nonlinear interactions in chirped quasi-phase-matched (QPM) gratings are shown to exhibit conversion efficiency approaching 100% with increasing input pump and signal intensities, evading backconversion, as long as the idler vanishes at the input and the QPM grating is sufficiently chirped. The signal phase is described in terms of Kerr-like self- and cross-phase modulations, in the ...
