Abstract
We introduce an optical parametric amplifier driven by a 3.5 μJ, 130 fs pulse at 1040 nm from a KMLabs Y-Fi HP. The optical parametric amplifier is seeded with white-light generated in a bulk YAG crystal. The net conversion efficiency into the short-wave infrared signal is as high 14%, and we are presently able to cover 1360–1800 nm (signal) and 2.35–4.15 μm (idler).
