摘要
Applications of 3 similar to 5 mu m mid-infrared lasers in many fields such as environmental pollution detection 7 medical treatment and industry are introduced. The development of typical mid-infrared optical parametric oscillator(OPO) based on ZnGeP2 and MgO: PPLN at home and abroad is summarized in this paper, and the respective advantages and development prospects with different structure of the lasers designed on the two crystals are analyzed. It is indicated that high power and small size OPO is a significant developing direction in the future, and bigger-size infrared crystal and higher performance index of pump sources are the core of the development of OPO. Finally, the development trend of the mid-infrared laser is forecast.
