Incoherently pumped continuous wave optical parametric oscillator broadened by non-collinear phasematching

Optics 2011-10-25 v2

Abstract

In this paper, we report on a singly resonant optical parametric oscillator (OPO) pumped by an amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) source. The pump focusing conditions allow non-collinear phasematching, which resulted in a 230 nm (190 cm1^{-1}) spectral bandwidth. Calculations indicate that such phasematching schemes may be used to further broaden OPO spectral bandwidths.
