Abstract :
A distributed-feedback optical parametric amplifier allows idler-seeding without concerning Bragg-reflection loss. An oscillator of this type has both wavelength and mode selectivities. We have developed a coupled-wave theory for the gain and resonance of this new class of laser devices.
