Abstract :
The authors present a dual signal-wave quasi-phase-matched optical parametric oscillator using periodically poled LiNbO3 with two grating periods. The wavelength separation of the signal waves was tuned from 2 to 22 nm by changing the grating periods and temperature in the 1.3-1.5 μm wavelength range
