Abstract

Multikilowatt mid infrared emission with high pump photon conversion efficiency (~ 15 percent) has been obtained by difference frequency generation in CdGeAs2utilizing the double wavelength output from a grating tuned twin-cavity TEA CO2 system, one signal of which is frequency doubled to provide efficient synchronized sources for both pump and idler. Tuning over a spectral range 8-14 mum can be achieved and further extended to 17 µm using 12.8 µm emission from an efficient TEA CO2 pumped NH3 laser.
