Abstract

This paper reports the 90°phase-matched Hg_0.35Cd_0.65Ga₂S₄ optical parametric oscillator (OPO) pumped by a Nd:YAG laser at 1.0642 μm in the 8.24-9.40 μm range. The resulting data for the temperature tuning curves of the two idler wavelengths were found to agree well with the theoretical values calculated with the Sellmeier and thermo-optic dispersion formulas constructed from those of HgGa₂S₄ and CdGa₂S₄ presented in our previous paper (K. Kato et al. Opt. Commun. 386, 49-52, (2017)). The OPO threshold was ~ 0.3 W, which is 57% lower than ~ 0.7 W observed for the 8-mm-long HgGa₂S₄ crystal.
