Abstract
Effective optical parametric oscillation (OPO) at room temperature was demonstrated by a periodically poled 1.0 mol% MgO-doped stoichiometric lithium tantalate (Mg:SLT) crystal. The slope conversion efficiency of total output power was ∼65% and the maximum output power was 655 mW at 1.3 W pumping without photorefraction. The difference of the OPO performance was investigated between 0.5 and 1.0 mol % Mg:SLT crystals, and a 1.0 mol % MgO-doped device exhibited better OPO performance and high resistance of photorefraction. The effective nonlinear coefficient of deff was found to be 10pm∕V by single-pass first-order quasiphase matched second-harmonic generation at 1064 nm.
