Abstract

Efficient down conversion in GaSe crystals of the signal and idler output beam from a LiNbO₃ optical parametric oscillator was obtained. With a 0.8 cm long GaSe crystal, the maximum peak power output was 1 kW and the maximum energy conversion efficiency was 2.5%. The wavelength can be continuously tuned over the 4-15 μm range.
