Abstract

We report a synchronously-pumped femtosecond optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on orientation-patterned gallium phosphide (OP-GaP), providing continuously tunable mid-infrared (mid-IR) idler radiation across 3570–7892 nm (28011267cm1), by exploiting pump wavelength tuning. We generate up to 54 mW of output average power at 80 MHz, and quantum conversion efficiencies up to 28.9% are achieved by use of synchronized pump retroreflection. With the inclusion of intracavity dispersion compensation in an OP-GaP OPO, near-transform-limited signal pulse durations of 112 fs at 1288 nm are measured, and peak powers up to 3 kW in the mid-IR are inferred. Finally, evidence of three-photon absorption is observed and characterized near the pump wavelength.
