摘要：

The coherence and the accuracy of a cw optical parametric oscillator (OPO) as an optical frequency divider was measured. The phase coherence between the pump and the signal or the idler was confirmed. The accuracy of the OPO as an optical frequency divider was found to be better than 5 x 10-(18).
