Abstract

Cw mode-locked optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) have gained considerable interest over the past few years. It has been shown experimentally by many groups that throughout the total wavelength range from the visible to the near-infrared regions picosecond and femtosecond pulses can be generated with OPOs.1 These systems can be very useful for a number of applications if their operation can be made stable and reliable. The performance of cw mode-locked OPOs strongly depends on a large number of parameters, such as group-velocity mismatch (GVM), group velocity dispersion (GVD), self-phase modulation (SPM), and resonator-length detuning. It is therefore desirable to simulate the optimum operation conditions. However, there is only limited theoretical work on cw mode-locked OPOs.2
