BiB3O6 femtosecond optical parametric oscillator.
We report a femtosecond optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on the nonlinear material BiB3O6. The OPO is synchronously pumped in the blue by the second harmonic of a Kerr-lens-mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser. It can provide wide and continuous tuning across the entire green-yellow-orange-red spectral range with a single crystal and a single set of mirrors. Using a 500 microm BiB3O6 crystal ...
متن کاملpulse-injection-seeded nanosecond optical parametric oscillator
We measured 90% pump depletion in a singly resonant image-rotating nanosecond optical parametric oscillator that was pulse-injection seeded by a self-generated signal pulse. The oscillator was pumped by an 8 ns duration single-frequency 532 nm pulse from an injection-seeded Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and resonated an 803 nm signal. The pump and pulsed-seed beams had flat-topped spatial fluence pro...
متن کاملHigh-repetition-rate femtosecond optical parametric oscillator-amplifier system near 3 mm
An ultrafast laser system for the chemically important 3-mm spectral region has been constructed by means of noncritically phased-matched KTiOPO4 optical parametric gain elements. An optical parametric oscillator, synchronously pumped by a mode-locked Ti:sapphire oscillator, generates high-quality seed pulses for an optical parametric amplifier. The optical parametric amplifier, pumped by a hig...
متن کاملEfficiency-enhanced soliton optical parametric amplifier
We show that the pump–to–signal power conversion efficiency of parametric chirped-pulse amplifiers made with periodically poled materials operating with multicolor spatial solitons can be significantly enhanced by employing engineered quasi-phase-matching gratings. Applications include compact sources of high-energy ultrashort pulses in diffraction-limited high-quality beams. © 2002 Optical Soc...
متن کاملFemtosecond optical parametric oscillator frequency combs
Techniques to measure and manipulate the carrier-envelope phase within femtosecond optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) allow their outputs to be stabilized in a way that produces a frequency comb structure, potentially tunable throughout the transparency band of the gain material. In this review we describe the fundamental principles of phase control, on which the development of singlyand dou...
