Abstract
A 100 Hz compact 2 μm optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on a type II non-critically phase-matched KTiOPO4 crystal (KTP) was reported. The monolithic KTP crystal was pumped with a passively Q-switched 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser. At a repetition rate of 100 Hz and a single pulse energy of 5.8 mJ of pump light, a 2128-nm laser output was achieved with a maximum of 1.17 mJ of parametric light at the degenerate point, with a parametric light pulse width of approximately 10.5 ns, corresponding to a pump to parametric light conversion efficiency of 20.1 %.
期刊介绍:
The Journal covers the entire field of infrared physics and technology: theory, experiment, application, devices and instrumentation. Infrared'' is defined as covering the near, mid and far infrared (terahertz) regions from 0.75um (750nm) to 1mm (300GHz.) Submissions in the 300GHz to 100GHz region may be accepted at the editors discretion if their content is relevant to shorter wavelengths. Submissions must be primarily concerned with and directly relevant to this spectral region.
Its core topics can be summarized as the generation, propagation and detection, of infrared radiation; the associated optics, materials and devices; and its use in all fields of science, industry, engineering and medicine.
Infrared techniques occur in many different fields, notably spectroscopy and interferometry; material characterization and processing; atmospheric physics, astronomy and space research. Scientific aspects include lasers, quantum optics, quantum electronics, image processing and semiconductor physics. Some important applications are medical diagnostics and treatment, industrial inspection and environmental monitoring.
