Abstract

The construction of a double, synchronously pumped OPO is described. It generates pulses with duration 25 ps and repetition rate of 10 Hz. The bandwidth of the radiation is 1.36 cm^-1, close to the Fourier limit. A single pulse from each oscillator is further amplified with an OPA obtaining pulse energies up to 3.7 mJ. This source can be tuned between 410 nm and 2000 nm.
