This book was released on 1996 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An instrumentation grant for the purchase of an tunable diode laser-amplifier, a rf synthesizer, and a rf spectrum analyzer is used to significantly enhance current research and support new investigations in optical parametric oscillators and wide-span optical frequency comb generation. Areas of research that benefit from the new capabilities include precision frequency metrology, optical communications, and multi-wavelength information processing. The fabricated diode laser at 790 nm has been utilized to generate tunable 1.6 um light using difference-frequency mixing in a quasi-phase matched periodically-poled lithium niobate substrate. It will also be used to pump an optical parametric oscillator for the generation of tunable 1.5-1.6 um radiation in the mW power range. The spectrum analyzer and synthesizer are to be used for evaluating the beat-note and phase noise characteristics of optical parametric oscillators and optical frequency comb generators.

This book was released on 1976 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary goal of this contract is research studies of tunable optical sources, and the development of coherent sources in new spectral regions. In particular, a major project this year has been IR image up-conversion based on three frequency summing in metal vapors. A general theory of the efficiency of these up-converters as a function of the pump laser spectrum, detuning, and linewidth, and of the linewidth of the selected non-allowed atomic transition has been developed.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book addresses many problems of ion exchange processes in LiNbO3, LiTaO3 and KTiOPO4 ferroelectrics and II-VI semiconductor single crystals for integrated optics applications. The authors start with the fundamentals of ion exchange processes in solids (Chapter 1). Chapter 1 can be considered also as an enlarged introduction to the book. Starting with Chapter 2, the general properties of LiNbO3 and LiTaO3 crystals, the methods used to study optical waveguides in these crystals as well as advanced preparation methods of optical waveguides are reviewed. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 are devoted to recent progress in the ion exchange processes in LiNbO3, LiTaO3 and KTiOPO4 crystals, respectively, and Chapter 6 summarizes the main applications of ion-exchanged waveguides in modern integrated optics. Finally, Chapter 7 deals with recently established ion exchange processes in II-VI semiconductors.

Download or read book Synchronously Pumped Optical Parametric Oscillator with Intracavity Difference Frequency Mixing written by Michael Dearborn and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work we experimentally investigate a singly resonant optical parametric oscillator (OPO) with an intracavity crystal that mixes the signal and idler waves, enhancing the power conversion efficiency of the idler radiation. Optical parametric oscillators provide a method for producing coherent tunable radiation from a coherent fixed-frequency pump source. The pump frequency Wp 15 converted to the signal and idler frequencies Ws and Wi, respectively, in the OPO interaction, Wp = Ws + Wi, Ws> Wi. Since the signal and idler frequencies sum to the incident pump frequency, they are always lower than the pump frequency. Extra-cavity difference-frequency mixing (DFM) of the signal and idler from an OPO was demonstrated in some early experiments and recently a number of investigators have examined mixing the signal and idler waves generated from a synchronously pumped OPO to produce long-wavelength difference-frequency radiation. Here the difference-frequency Wd is produced in the DFM interaction, Wd = Ws - Wi. The DFM process not only produces long-wavelength radiation at the difference frequency, but for each difference-frequency photon produced, another idler photon is produced. Thus, this technique also increases the idler-frequency conversion efficiency. Production of the long-wavelength difference-frequency photons may not be possible in a single-step OPO process, due to transmission bands and phase-matching limitations of available crystals and available pump wavelengths.
