We have developed and tested a standoff biological aerosol detection demonstrator employing ultraviolet laser-induced fluorescence. It is based on commercially available components including a pulsed 355-nm laser and an intensified charge-coupled dev

A new method to obtain a narrow and symmetrical far field from a high-pulse-energy optical parametric oscillator (OPO) with a linear resonator has been tested. The OPO employs two identical nonlinear crystals that are cut for type II phase matching,

60 mJ signal pulse energy at 1.6 µm with M2 ~ 3.3 is obtained from a KTP-based OPO applying a simple linear resonator geometry with double-pass pumping and an achromatic half-wave plate.

Absorption at the idler wavelength in an optical parametric oscillator (OPO) is often considered detrimental. We show through simulations that pulsed OPOs with significant idler absorption can perform better than OPOs with low idler absorption both i

We show by simulations that idler absorption may improve the performance of pulsed high energy OPOs, and obtain high signal conversion efficiency and signal beam quality with idler absorption coefficients above 3 cm-1.

Sum-frequency generation of UV pulses exceeding 25 mJ and with beam quality has been demonstrated by mixing the third harmonic pulses of a flash lamp pumped 1.06 μm Nd:YAG laser with 1.7 μm pulses from an optical parametric oscillator pumped by the

A 295 nm nanosecond source with pulse energy exceeding 30 mJ and beam quality ~1 mm●mrad is demonstrated. A 1064 nm laser pumps an OPO whose signal beam is mixed with the laser’s third harmonic in a compact setup.

We demonstrate with simulations and experiments that an optical parametric oscillator using two different crystals with orthogonal walk-off planes can generate a symmetric, high-quality beam even if the resonator has a high Fresnel number. In the exp
