Abstract
I report on recent progress in continuous-wave optical parametric oscillators. In particular I report on the use of periodically-poled nonlinear materials; novel cavity configurations, including dual-cavity, pump-enhanced and intracavity; integer ratio optical frequency generation; and other applications.
