摘要：

We report infrared conversion of picosecond, visible dye laser pulses and picosecond 1. 064 mu m by a sequence of difference frequency generations in LiIO//3 and AgGaS//2 crystals. The dye laser was a short cavity design and was pumped by the second harmonic of a mode-locked Nd:YAG laser to give 23 ps pulses. The design can span 4-11 mu m in the infrared, and we tested the efficiencies between 5. 2-6. 4 mu m with a single dye. Conversion efficiencies of the dye laser were 16%, while the resulting near infrared was converted to infrared at 35% efficiency.
