Abstract
A synchronously pumped optical parametric oscillator (SPOPO) incorporating an intracavity diffraction grating allows agile tuning (compared with temperature tuning of the nonlinear crystal). Singly resonant operation very close to degeneracy is also readily achieved. We have previously confirmed that the use of the grating is compatible with high power operation (up to 1.6 W of signal output demonstrated) [1].
