Abstract

An intracavity pumped dual-wavelength optical parametric oscillator based on a single MgO:APLN crystal at approximately 3.30 and 3.84 μm was studied using a folded-type double cavity, which consists of a 1.06 μm resonator and dual-wavelength optical parametric oscillator. With the maximum incident diode power of 43.84 W, the maximum output powers of 1.43 W at 3.30 μm and 2.47 W at 3.84 μm were obtained under T = 70%@1.57 μm and T = 25%@1.47 μm at a repetition rate of 40 kHz, corresponding to conversion efficiencies of 3.26% and 5.63%, respectively. The pulse widths of 11.35 ns at 3.30 μm and 13.17 ns at 3.84 μm were obtained synchronously. A dual-wavelength optical parametric energy conversion model was set up to simulate the influence of the transmittance at resonant signal wavelengths on the output power of idler wavelengths. Both theoretical and experimental results demonstrated that the relationships in output power between 3.30 and 3.84 μm can be affected by adjusting the transmittance at signal wavelengths.
