We demonstrate the usefulness of a nanosecond pulsed single-mode mid-infrared (MIR) optical parametric oscillator (OPO) for Photoacoustic (PA) spectroscopic measurements. The maximum wavelength ranges for the signal and idler are 1.4 um to…
Mid-infrared femtosecond optical frequency combs were produced by difference frequency generation of the spectral components of a near-infrared comb in a 3-mm-long MgO:PPLN crystal. We observe strong pump depletion and 9.3 dB parametric…
This study presents a compact, high-power monolithic all-glass spun tapered double-clad fiber amplifier for single-stage amplification of narrow linewidth picosecond pulsed signals from a few tens of mW to several hundred Watts of average…
We demonstrate how the depleted pump of an optical parametric amplifier can be recycled for impulsive alignment of a molecular gas inside a hollow-core fiber and use such alignment for the broadening and frequency shift of the signal pulse…
We predict that parametric sum-frequency generation of an ultra-short pulse may result from the mixing of an ultra-short optical pulse with a quasi-continuous wave control. We analytically show that the intensity, time duration and group…
We demonstrate non-degenerate photon-pair generation by spontaneous parametric down conversion in a silver gallium sulfide AgGaS$_2$ crystal. By tuning the pump wavelength, we achieve phase matching over a large spectral range. This allows…
We report on the design of a highly-nonlinear specialty fiber as a mid-infrared light source at 4.3 {\mu}m. A meter length of the designed solid-core chalcogenide based index-guided microstructured optical fiber (MOF) with circular air…

The microscale integration of mid- and longwave-infrared photonics could enable the development of fieldable, robust chemical sensors, as well as highly efficient infrared frequency converters. However, such technology would be defined by…
For the first time, we demonstrated that a hyper-broadband from 2{\mu}m to 10{\mu}m can be generated with a high spectral flatness by using a ~4 um pump and an As2Se3 photonic crystal fiber. The broad and flat dispersion profile and the low…

We present a 100 kHz broadband vibrational sum-frequency generation (VSFG) spectrometer operating in the 5.5-10.5 $\mu$m (950-1750 cm$^{-1}$) wavelength range. The mid-infrared beam of the system is obtained from a collinear, type-I…
High-energy, narrow-linewidth nanosecond pulses are highly demanding for many applications that require high temporal and spatial coherence. However, the amplification of narrow-linewidth pulses is primarily limited by stimulated Brillouin…
Optical amplification is critical for optical signal transmission. While the emergence of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers has revolutionized optical communications in fiber-based systems, on-chip amplification remains essential for integrated…
The features of a compact, single pass, multi-pixel optical parametric generator are discussed. Several hundreds of independent high spatial-quality tunable ultrashort pulses were produced by pumping a bulk lithium triborate crystal with an…
