摘要：

A mode-locked Ti:sapphire regenerative amplifier system pumped with a single argon ion laser produces mu J energy 100 femtosecond pulses of 800 mm wavelength at 250 kHz repetition rate. Pumping a Type II BBO OPA with this output generates 500 nJ infrared pulses and continuous tuning from 1.1 mu m to beyond 2.5 mu m. Difference frequency generation of the signal idler output from this OPA source in AgGaS2 produces 60 nJ midinfrared pulses and continuous tuning from 2.4 mu m to beyond 12 mu m.
