Abstract

Semiconductor-diode-pumped optical parametric oscillation is achieved by using a Nd:MgO:LiNbO3 crystal, which is an OPO material that exhibits lasing action. The 1085 nm laser radiation, which is generated by Nd ions within a laser cavity by absorption of 812-nm radiation from diode-laser pumps, initiates parametric oscillation when phasematching and oscillation-threshold conditions are satisfied inside the OPO cavity. This concept was first proposed in 1993,1 and initial experiments offered ~1% conversion efficiency.2
