Idler-efficiency-enhanced long-wave infrared beam generation using aperiodic orientation-patterned GaAs gratings
(Optical Society of America, 2016)In this paper, we design aperiodic gratings based on orientation-patterned gallium arsenide (OP-GaAs) for converting 2.1 μm pump laser radiation into long-wave infrared (8-12 μm) in an idler-efficiency-enhanced scheme. ... -
Nanosecond sum-frequency generating optical parametric oscillator using simultaneous phase matching
(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2005)We report a nanosecond sum-frequency generating optical parametric oscillator based on a single KTiOAsO4 crystal that is simultaneously phase matched for optical parametric generation and sum-frequency generation. Pumped ... -
Nonlinearity-tailored fiber laser technology for low-noise, ultra-wideband tunable femtosecond light generation
(OSA - The Optical Society, 2017)The emission wavelength of a laser is physically predetermined by the gain medium used. Consequently, arbitrary wavelength generation is a fundamental challenge in the science of light. Present solutions include optical ... -
Phase-matched self-doubling optical parametric oscillator
(Optical Society of America, 1997-03-01)We report a synchronously pumped intracavity frequency-doubled optical parametric oscillator that employs a single KTiOPO4 crystal for both parametric generation and frequency doubling. Both nonlinear processes are phase ... -
Phase-matched self-doubling optical parametric oscillator
(IEEE, 1996)A new self-doubling optical parametric oscillator (OPO) uses a single nonlinear crystal for both parametric generation and frequency doubling. It is based on a KTiOPO4 (KTP) crystal pumped by a Ti:Sapphire laser operating ... -
Plane-wave theory of self-doubling optical parametric oscillators
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 1998-03)This paper presents a theoretical analysis of self-doubling optical parametric oscillators (OPO's) where a single nonlinear crystal is used for both parametric generation and frequency doubling. In these devices, the ... -
Simultaneous phase matching of optical parametric oscillation and second-harmonic generation in aperiodically poled lithium niobate
(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2003)We report a simple ad hoc method for designing an aperiodic grating structure to quasi-phase match two arbitrary second-order nonlinear processes simultaneously within the same electric-field-poled crystal. This method ... -
Single-crystal sum-frequency generating optical parametric oscillator
(IEEE, 1997)A sum-frequency generating optical parametric oscillator (OPO), where a single crystal is employed for both parametric oscillation and sum frequency generation, is presented. The OPO is based on a KTiOPO4 crystal that is ... -
Single-crystal sum-frequency-generating optical parametric oscillator
(Optical Society of America, 1999-09)We report a synchronously pumped optical parametric oscillator that generates the sum frequency of the pump and the signal wavelengths. A single KTiOPO4 (KTP) crystal is used for both parametric generation and sum-frequency ... -
Tapered nanoscale chalcogenide fibers directly drawn from bulk glasses as optical couplers for high-index resonators
(OSA - The Optical Society, 2017)We report production of air-clad tapered chalcogenide fibers by directly drawing bulk glasses between cleaved tips of tapered silica fibers. Exploiting these tapered fibers with nanoscale waists as evanescent optical ...
