Broadly tunable mW level UV light generated by intracavity SFG in a compact high-Q PPMgSLT OPO

Abstract

A compact multi-kHz UV source tunable from 363nm to 378nm is realized by intracavity SFG in a PPMgSLT OPO. Phase-matched peaks at 334nm and 370nm are observed. A full tuning range of similar to 58nm is predicted. (C) 2007 Optical Society of America
