Abstract
A method of producing a broadband and/or multi-mode emission light source utilizing an Optical Parametric Oscillator (OPO) includes providing a pump source configured to produce a continuous wave pump beam, providing an OPO with an optical cavity containing a nonlinear crystal configured to receive the continuous wave pump beam and produce a first output light beam and a second output light beam. The OPO has an OPO-oscillation threshold level and produces longitudinal mode-scrambling on a resonant OPO-wave. The first output light resonates in the optical cavity in a multi-longitudinal resonant mode and produces a pump beam having a power at least three times the OPO-oscillation threshold.
