Abstract
The frequency-tuning and -control properties of monolithic doubly resonant optical parametric oscillators are analyzed for stable single-mode pump radiation. Single-axial-mode operation is observed on the idler and the signal for both pulsed and continuous pumping. Projections are made for tuning-parameter tolerances that are required for maintenance of stable single-frequency oscillation. Continuous frequency tuning is possible through the simultaneous adjustment of two or three parameters; thus the synthesis of specific frequencies within the broad tuning range of the doubly resonant optical parametric oscillator is permitted.
