Abstract :
Summary form only given. A novel approach to forming the high brightness output of the travelling-wave optical parametric generator (TOPG) in single pass is demonstrated. TOPG based on KTP crystal was pumped by the Bessel beam formed by an axicone. This is a new approach to diffraction-limited parametric superfluorescence generation in nonlinear crystal pumped by a Bessel beam.
