Abstract
We extend the concept of broadband phase matching in a noncollinear optical parametric amplifier (NOPA) to the near-IR. In an pumped NOPA using periodically poled stoichiometric lithium tantalate, we amplify a spectrum spanning the range and corresponding to two optical cycles of the carrier wavelength. A limited portion of the spectrum is compressed by a prism pair down to .
