Parametric oscillators are a type of driven harmonic oscillator that are based on a nonlinear process in a resonant cavity, which are widely used in various areas of physics. In the past, parametric ...

Optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) have been widely applied in areas ranging from spectroscopy photonics to quantum information. While conventional OPOs typically suffer from weak nonlinearity ...

The first mirrorless optical parametric oscillator (MOPO) has been unveiled by researchers in Sweden. The simplicity of the device with its ability to tune with high precision in the near- and ...

Figure 3: Emission spectrum of the optical parametric oscillator. Figure 4 also shows (blue triangles) the emission of the low-energy mode when pumping resonantly the second mode for a position on the ...

Radiantis (www.radiantis.com) firstly presented at the Laser Show 2013 in Münich, the Oria™ IR, a sealed, hands-free and fully-automated femtosecond OPO that offers class-leading wavelength coverage ...

Part of my professional job is to develop new light sources. So a recent Physical Review Letter on the development of a very special optical parametric oscillator caught my interest. Of course, many ...

Nonlinear optical frequency conversion is an important enabling technology for a variety of applications, especially laser spectroscopy. Molecular spectroscopy experiments typically require light in ...
