Abstract
3.2-mJ, 92-fs pulses centered at 3.1 µm are generated at a 1-kHz repetition rate through a tabletop optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA) system based on ZnGeP2 crystals. Pumped by a 2-µm chirped pulse amplifier with a flat-top beam profile, the amplifier achieves a 16.5% overall efficiency, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the highest efficiency achieved by OPCPA at this wavelength. Harmonics up to the seventh order are observed after focusing the output in the air.
