Paper Abstract
Development of an OPO wavelength conversion scheme is currently in progress that converts the 1 micrometers output from a diode-pumped laser, to the 8 - 12 micrometers spectral region for remote chemical sensing applications. Preliminary results from the non-optimized first stage OPO, which uses an x-cut KTA crystal, show a 21% energy conversion efficiency from 1 micrometers to 2.59 micrometers . The 2.59 micrometers output will then be used to pump a CdSe OPO to generate tunable 8 - 12 micrometers idler wave output.
