It is based on a KTiOPO4 (KTP) crystal pumped by a Ti:Sapphire laser operating at a wavelength of 739 nm. The crystal is cut such that the signal wavelength of the OPO is at 1064 nm, corresponding to an idler wavelength of 2420 nm. The OPO cavity resonates only the signal wavelength. The signal beam is also phase-matched for second harmonic generation (SHG) at the same crystal orientation. With proper polarization rotation, an output beam at a wavelength of 532 nm can be obtained.EnglishAntireflection coatingsCavity resonatorsCrystal orientationElectrooptical devicesFrequency multiplying circuitsLaser mode lockingLaser pulsesLight polarizationPumping (laser)Second harmonic generationSingle crystalsOptical parametric oscillatorsPhase matchingSingle nonlinear crystalsParametric oscillatorsConference Paper10.1109/LEOS.1996.565101
