Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) constitute an important coherent, narrow-linewidth and widely tunable light source with applications in spectroscopy and many other fields. Their realizations based on whispering gallery resonators (WGRs) provide a small footprint and ultra-low thresholds, with demonstrations of tunability typically done via temperature variation. In this work, we show the pump tuning capabilities of a mm-sized WGR mid-infrared OPO made of CdSiP2. By tuning a telecom wavelength diode laser by 16 nm, we generate tunable light from 2708 to 3575 nm. Furthermore, we show controlled tuning in steps of 1 free spectral range (FSR) and the possibility of 12 GHz of continuous tuning. All these features are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions. We conclude that tuning from 2.4 to 4.9 μm is even possible, while still using commercially available near-infrared diode lasers. This work highlights the advantages of pump tuning of WGR OPOs and provides valuable insights for their precise control

Download or read book Investigation Into Mid infrared Pulse Shaping Using an Optical Parametric Oscillator written by Naveed A. Naz and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis reports experimental indirect spectral transfer of shaped pulses from the near to mid-infrared via the use of an optical parametric oscillator. It was shown that good spectral fidelity of transfer can be achieved by making suitable adjustments to the OPO. The issues affecting the transfer process are discussed and experimental results are compared with existing theory. The shaping of the nearinfrared pulses was performed using a zero dispersion pulse shaper and a computer controlled spatial light modulator. A suitable search algorithm was written and, with the use of appropriate computer hardware, allowed a closed-feedback loop to be implemented. The computer controlled hardware was demonstrated to be able to autonomously optimise simple experiments in the mid-infrared and optimise the threshold of an optical parametric oscillator.
Download or read book Nonlinear Photonics written by Hyatt M. Gibbs and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonlinear photonics is the name given to the use of nonlinear optical devices for the generation, communication, processing, or analysis of information. This book is a progress report on research into practical applications of such devices. At present, modulation, switching, routing, decision-making, and detection in photonic systems are all done with electronics and linear optoelectronic devices. However, this may soon change, as nonlinear optical devices, e.g. picosecond samplers and switches, begin to complement optoelectonic devices. The authors succinctly summarize past accomplishments in this field and point to hopes for the future, making this an ideal book for newcomers or seasoned researchers wanting to design and perfect nonlinear optical devices and to identify applications in photonic systems.
