摘要
We report a high power and high efficiency double resonant ZnGeP2 （ZGP） optical parametric oscillator （OPO） pumped by a Tm,Ho：GdVO4 laser. We employ a Tm,Ho：GdVO4 laser as the pump source operated at 2.049 μm with M^2 = 1.1. The ZGP OPO can generate a total combined output power of 14.1 W at 3.80μm signal and 4.45 μm idler under pumping power of 28. 7 W. The slope efficiency reaches 61.8%, and M^2 = 3.6 for OPO output is obtained.
