Abstract :
This course provides an overview of optical parametric oscillators (OPOs), from basic operation principles to advanced devices. The course will begin with a description of the fundamental concepts in nonlinear optics and frequency conversion, followed by a discussion of OPO devices, an overview of the latest advances in OPO technology, and applications. The discussion will cover OPOs operating in all temporal regimes, from the continuous-wave (cw) to the ultrafast femtosecond time-scales.
