Selection of optimal phase matching conditions for semiconductor nonlinear crystals cascaded pump at 2 μm
Model studies of the optimal phase matching conditions for the implementation of optical parametric oscillator (OPO) in the mid-infrared range (IR) based on promising nonlinear crystals, such as: cadmium selenide CdSe, barium selenogallate BaGa4Se7, BaGa2GeSe6, mercury thiogallate and zinc germanium phosphide ZnGeP2 (ZGP). To pump OPOs, it is necessary to use a laser source with a wavelength in the spectral range of 1.9-2.2 µm, since by the combination of physical properties listed above for nonlinear crystals, it is optimal for achieving the maximum efficiency of parametric frequency conversion. Despite the high values of the effective nonlinear susceptibility and thermal conductivity, the transparency range of the ZGP crystal in the mid-IR range does not exceed 10.4 μm, and the achieved OPO generation wavelength range does not exceed 9 μm in the nanosecond mode. Crystals HgGa2S4 and BaGa4Se7 have lower values of nonlinear coefficients and thermal conductivity, however, they have a wider transparency range and, as a consequence, make it possible to obtain lasing up to a wavelength of 12 μm. When using a BaGa4Se7 crystal, the lasing range can be extended up to 17 μm. The CdSe crystal has the largest transparency range; however, other parameters do not allow solving the set tasks.
