Abstract
We present the first to our knowledge continuous-wave singly-resonant optical parametric oscillator (SROPO) generating tunable signal and idler waves with less than 100 mW single-frequency pump power. This low threshold is achieved by an additional intracavity gain medium that is pumped incoherently. The idler power with respect to the single-frequency pump power shows a bistable behavior which depends strongly on the pumping of the additional amplifier. Furthermore, we demonstrate that such a setup allows a SROPO to be completely diode pumped.
