  • Abstract
    A tunable quasi phase-matched optical parametric oscillator synchronously pumped at 1.047 μm is reported. The signal was tuned from 1.33 to 1.45 μm, corresponding to a calculated idler tuning range of 2.67-4.86 μm. Average signal powers of up to 100 mW and pulse durations of 3.2 ps were obtained
