Adjustment of the center frequency and the mode spacing in a frequency converted wavelength division multiplexed light source is also disclosed. A related method of use discloses generating pump laser radiation through combination of multiple pump sources in a wavelength division multiplexed arrangement; passing the pump laser radiation through the non-linear medium of a singly resonant, single-frequency optical parametric oscillator, wherein the pump laser radiation is continuous wave or pulsed, wherein the pulse duration in the latter case is longer than the time the optical parametric oscillation requires to reach its steady state; and coupling out the non-resonant idler or signal laser radiation from the optical parametric oscillator as usable frequency converted laser radiation. Moreover, the invention relates to a laser device for carrying out the method of the invention.

A frequency conversion laser system is configured with a single mode (SM) laser source outputting a pulsed pump beam at a fundamental frequency and a nonlinear optical system operating to convert the fundamental frequency sequentially to a second harmonic (SH) and then third harmonic (TH). The nonlinear optical system includes an elongated SHG crystal traversed by the SM pulsed pump beam which generates the SH beam. The SHG crystal has an output surface inclined relative to a longitudinal axis of the SHG crystal at a first wedge angle different from a right angle. The nonlinear optical system further has an elongated THG crystal with an input surface which is impinged upon by a remainder of the pump and SHG beams which propagate through the THG crystal at a walk-off angle therebetween to generate a third harmonic (TH) beam, the input surface of the THG crystal being inclined to a longitudinal axis of the THG crystal at a second wedge angle. The output and input surfaces of respective SHG and THG crystals are inclined so as to minimize the walk-off angle between SH and IR pointing vectors in the THG crystal thereby improving the conversion efficiency and TH output beam's ellipticity.

Binary-phase-shift-key, phase-modulated waveforms with gigahertz bandwidths, suitable for kilowatt-class fiber amplifiers, can be narrowed back to the source laser’s linewidth via second-harmonic, sum-frequency, or difference-frequency generation in a second-order nonlinear crystal. The spectrum of an optical signal phase-modulated with a pseudo-random bit sequence (PRBS) waveform recovers its original optical spectrum when frequency-doubled using second-harmonic generation (SHG). Conceptually, the PRBS waveform is cancelled by the SHG process, and the underlying laser spectrum is converted to the second-harmonic wavelength as though the PRBS modulation were not present. The same cancellation is possible with sum-frequency generation (SFG) and difference frequency generation (DFG), making it possible to construct high-power, narrow-linewidth lasers at wavelengths from the visible to the long-wave infrared. Using ytterbium-, erbium-, thulium-, and neodymium-doped fibers with SHG, SFG and DFG processes allows generation of high-power beams with very narrowband optical spectra and wavelengths from below 400 nm to beyond 5 .Math.m.
