173 results about "Optical parametric oscillator" patented technology

An optical parametric oscillator (OPO) is a parametric oscillator that oscillates at optical frequencies. It converts an input laser wave (called "pump") with frequency ωₚ into two output waves of lower frequency (ωₛ,ωᵢ) by means of second-order nonlinear optical interaction. The sum of the output waves' frequencies is equal to the input wave frequency: ωₛ+ωᵢ=ωₚ. For historical reasons, the two output waves are called "signal" and "idler", where the output wave with higher frequency is the "signal".

Active optical resonator for frequency conversion

An optical parametric oscillator and method for generating coherent signal light involve a resonant optical cavity for coherent signal light, and in the cavity a non-parametric gain element for amplifying the coherent signal light to only partially compensate for passive optical roundtrip losses, thereby obtaining lower effective roundtrip losses. A parametric gain element is arranged in the cavity, for converting coherent pump light into coherent signal light through an instantaneous nonlinear optical interaction. The parametric oscillator has means for adjusting an intracavity optical power of the coherent pump light above a threshold value, where the parametric gain is balancing the effective roundtrip losses, thus inducing sustained oscillations of the signal light in the optical cavity.
