Abstract :
Summary form only given. A single resonance optical parametric oscillator (SRO) is inserted intracavity to a CW high power, single frequency, and ring Nd:YVO/sub 4/ laser. We obtain a stable single frequency CW SRO with output at 1.7-1.9 /spl mu/m (idler) and a resonating signal at 2.3-2.6 /spl mu/m. The behavior of the two coupled resonators is simulated and the output power from the SRO is described as a function of the diode pumping power supplied to the Nd:YVO/sub 4/ laser.
