0.74 W Broadband Degenerate Femtosecond MgO-Doped Periodically Poled Lithium Niobate (MgO: PPLN) Optical Parametric Oscillator at 2056 nm
The degenerate optical parametric oscillator (OPO) is demonstrated to generate high-power, broadband mid-infrared MgO-doped periodically poled lithium niobate (MgO:PPLN) femtosecond laser at 151 MHz, synchronously pumped by a commercial Kerr-lens mode-locked Yb:KGW oscillator at 1028 nm. The average...

| Achoimre: | The degenerate optical parametric oscillator (OPO) is demonstrated to generate high-power, broadband mid-infrared MgO-doped periodically poled lithium niobate (MgO:PPLN) femtosecond laser at 151 MHz, synchronously pumped by a commercial Kerr-lens mode-locked Yb:KGW oscillator at 1028 nm. The average power of the degenerate OPO centered at 2056 nm is as high as 740 mW, which is the highest output power from a reported 2 μm degenerate femtosecond OPO, pumped by a bulk solid-state laser. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) spectral bandwidth of the degenerate OPO is 87.4 nm, corresponding to a theoretical, Fourier-limited pulse duration of 51 fs. These remarkable results indicate that degenerate OPO is a great potential candidate technology for generating high-power and few-cycle femtosecond pulses around 2 μm. Such mid-infrared sources are well-suited for high harmonic generation, a pumping source for mid- to far-infrared OPO. |
