Abstract
A device for generating laser pulses is provided, the device having an optical parametric oscillator converts the laser pulses of a pump laser to laser pulses at a signal wavelength and at an idler wavelength. The optical parametric oscillator has an optical resonator with a non-linear wavelength converter. It is an object of the invention to provide a device that makes efficient generation of synchronous laser pulse trains with two different central wavelengths possible. To this end, the invention proposes that the pump laser is tunable with respect to the pump wavelength and the repetition frequency, wherein the resonator has an optical fibre with a dispersion in the range of 10-100 ps/nm and a length of 10-1000 m. The invention furthermore relates to a method for generating laser pulses using such a device.
