Efficient near-room-temperature PPMgLN optical parametric oscillator pumped by an electro-optically Q-switched Tm:YAP laser

The transient conversion dynamics of a near-degenerate doubly-resonant optical parametric oscillator (DRO) based on periodically poled MgO:LiNbO 3 (PPMgLN) were investigated using a time-domain coupled-wave model. Operating in the mid-infrared (MIR) region, the DRO is primarily l...
