Abstract
We have demonstrated the 90° phase-matched type-I difference-frequency generation (DFG) in AgGa1-xInxS2 with x = 0.14 by mixing the dual-wavelength pulses emitted from an electronically tuned Ti:sapphire laser. Infrared radiation continuously tunable over the range of 4.8-6.98&mgr;m was generated by independently varying the two wavelengths in the spectral range of 705-932nm. In addition, 4.04&mgr;m radiation was generated by mixing a Nd:YAG laser with the Ti:Sapphire laser in the same crystal. Sellmeier equations that reproduce well the experimentally obtained data for these processes are presented.
