Long-wave infrared ZnGeP₂ optical parametric oscillator with exceeding 3 W at around 10 μm
2020
We demonstrated a high-power long-wave infrared optical parametric oscillator at 9.8 µm based on a type-I phase-matching ${{\rm ZnGeP}_2}$ZnGeP2 crystal. By using a ${Q}$Q-switched 2091 nm Ho:YAG laser with pulse repetition frequency of 10 kHz as the pump source, the maximum average output power of 3.51 W at 9.8 µm was achieved with incident pump power of 90 W, corresponding to a slope efficiency of 4.81% and conversion efficiency at maximum pump power of 3.9%. The pulse width of 19.6 ns and linewidth of 142 nm were obtained at maximum output level. In addition, the beam quality factor ${M^2}$M2 was measured to be ${\sim}{2.2}$∼2.2.
