Abstract
An optical parametric oscillator and a laser system including an optical parametric oscillator is provided for producing widely tunable coherent light over about 6 &mgr;m, such as in the range of at least about 7 &mgr;m to 18 &mgr;m range. Optical parametric oscillators in accordance with the invention advantageously include CdGeAs (CGA) crystals. Such crystals, in accordance with the invention can exhibit exceptionally small (<0.1 cm ) losses in intensity. Laser systems in accordance with the invention can include frequency-doubled CO lasers as the pump beam and frequency doublers or changers, based on CGA crystals.
