Abstract
A description is given of a singly resonant optical parametric oscillator utilizing a lithium iodate crystal and operating in the infrared range. The pump radiation was the second harmonic of a single-mode pulse YAG laser with a periodically operated amplifier. The use of this pumping system made it possible to tune continuously the output radiation in the 0.63?3.4 ? range and to obtain an output power of ~100 kW per pulse with a line width 2?10 cm?1. Fabry-Perot frequency selectors placed inside the resonator of the parametric oscillator made it possible to reduce the line width to <0.1 cm?1 throughout the tuning range. This parametric oscillator system was used to study the dispersion of the nonlinear third-order susceptibility of chloroform.
