High-energy, near- and mid-IR picosecond pulses generated by a fiber-MOPA-pumped optical parametric generator and amplifier.
We report a high-energy picosecond optical parametric generator/amplifier (OPG/A) based on a MgO:PPLN crystal pumped by a fiber master-oscillator-power-amplifier (MOPA) employing direct amplification. An OPG tuning range of 1450-3615 nm is demonstrated with pulse energies as high as 2.6 μJ (signal) and 1.2 μJ (idler). When seeded with a ~100 MHz linewidth diode laser, damage-limited pulse energ...
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 کاملCascaded Nonlinear Optical Mixing in a Noncollinear Optical Parametric Amplifier
Ultrafast optical science is a rapidly evolving multidisciplinary field: the ability to excite matter with femtosecond light pulses and probe its subsequent evolution on ultrashort time scales opens up completely new fields of research in physics, chemistry, and biology.[1] Furthermore, the high intensities that can be generated using femtosecond light pulses allow us to explore new regimes of ...
متن کاملWidely tunable picosecond optical parametric oscillator using highly nonlinear fiber.
We demonstrated a fully fiber-integrated widely tunable picosecond optical parametric oscillator based on highly nonlinear fiber. The ring cavity with a 50 m highly nonlinear fiber was synchronously pumped with a picosecond mode-locked fiber laser. The tuning range was from 1413 to 1543 nm and from 1573 to 1695 nm, which was as wide as 250 nm. A high-quality pulse was generated with a pulse wid...
متن کاملSub-picosecond all-optical switch using a multi-quantum-well semiconductor optical amplifier
We investigate an all-optical switch that is operated by the nonlinear phase-shift introduced by optical pulses with duration of 200 fs in a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOAs). The gate is made out of a commercially available InGaAsP–InGaAs multi-quantum-well (MQW) SOA placed in a Mach–Zehnder interferometer. We have measured the nonlinear phase-shift as a function of the injection current ...
