High Power 4.2-Cycle Mid-Infrared Pulses From a Self-Compression Optical Parametric Oscillator

We demonstrate the generation of few cycle mid-infrared (MIR) pulses from a self-compressed optical parametric oscillator (OPO), synchronously pumped by a 105 fs Yb<sup>3+</sup> doped fiber laser system. By using a ring cavity design, 4.2-cycle (45.3 fs) MIR pulses at a central wavelengt...
