Abstract

This paper reports the first direct application of a nitrogen laser as a frequency mixing component in a parametric experiment. Tunable infrared radiation from 0.68 to 1.1 μm is generated by mixing N2 laser and dye laser pulses in ADP. The experimental tuning curve is in good agreement with theory. A peak signal power of 1 W is obtained over an interaction length of 1.1 cm with 7 kW of N2 laser and 5 kW of dye laser power. The signal bandwidth is consistent with those of the input beams. Possible extensions of the tuning range are discussed.
