Abstract :
We report stable, continuous-wave, mid-infrared optical-parametric-oscillator based on MgO:PPLN, pumped by Yb-fiber-laser, generating total power of 17.5W at 61% extraction efficiency, in TEM00(M2 Idier <1.24,M2 Signal<1.24) spatial mode with peak-peak idler power stability of 5% over 14 hours.
