Room-temperature electroluminescence in the mid-infrared (2-3 microm) from bulk chromium-doped ZnSe.

Electroluminescence associated with impact excitation or ionization of deep Cr(2+) impurity centers in bulk ZnSe is reported. A broad signal of mid-infrared luminescence between 2 and 3 microm is observed once the biased bulk ZnSe device runs into a nonlinear conduction regime. Optical powers in the nanowatt range have been measured at room temperature. The different mechanisms involved in this intracenter infrared light emission are discussed.

Actively mode-locked optical parametric oscillator.

We report on what we believe to be the first demonstration of active mode locking of an optical parametric oscillator. An acousto-optic modulator is inserted into a nearly degenerate (approximately 1064 nm) and doubly resonant optical parametric oscillator based on periodically poled LiNbO3 and pumped with the second harmonic of a quasi-continuous-wave single-frequency Nd:YAG laser. When the modulation frequency is matched to the free spectral range of the cavity (120 MHz), a pulsed regime is observed, with pulse durations as short as 700 ps.

Generation of mid-infrared radiation by self-difference frequency mixing in chromium-doped zinc selenide.

We report what we believe to be the first demonstration of mid-infrared generation (approximately 9 microm) by self-difference frequency generation in Fresnel birefringence quasi-phase-matched Cr:ZnSe laser slabs.
