摘要
We report a millijoule-level mid-infrared MgO-doped periodically poled lithium niobate (MgO:PPLN) optical parametric oscillator pumped by a 1.064 mu m nanosecond laser. The maximum mid-infrared 3.5 mu m idler output energy reached 3.65 mJ at the pump energy of 21 mJ, corresponding to a photon conversion efficiency of 57%. The wavelength tunabilities of the signal and idler outputs were also realized, with the continuous tuning ranges of 1.501 to 1.558 mu m and 3.650 to 3.353 mu m, respectively, by controlling the temperature of the MgO:PPLN crystal. The beam quality factor (M-2) of the mid-infrared idler output was measured to be <1.75. (C) 2018 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
