Abstract

We constructed a computer controlled high stability wide tunable parametric amplifier, and reported on a (beta) - borium borate (BBO) optical parametric amplifier of injection-seeded with a narrow linewidth pulsed Ti:sapphire laser. The pump source of Ti:sapphire laser is the residual second harmonic (532 nm) in frequency tripling (355 nm) of the Nd:YAG laser. We obtained the linewidth interferograph of Ti:sapphire laser is less than 0.003 nm, and tested six times curves of the output energy as a function of tunable wavelengths in injection seeding more than that of no injection. The narrow linewidth (<0.1 nm) continuous tunable range of 570 - 670 nm is achieved.
