Abstract
Tunable mid-IR pulses in the range are generated through a phase-matched four-wave mixing process in ordinary mid-IR window materials such as and . In this process the difference frequency is generated from pump fields and . The process can be phase matched to different frequencies by adjustment of the angle between the pump fields.
