Abstract

We present a Geometric Phase (GP)-based Sagnac Anti-Resonant Ring (ARR) interferometer mirror (GP-mirror) for achieving tunable optimum output coupling in Continuous Wave (CW) Doubly Resonant Optical parametric oscillator (DRO). The DRO is designed using a nonlinear crystal MgO: PPsLT of 30 mm length and a grating period of 7.97 μm with a GP mirror in one arm of the standing wave cavity. The GP mirror is constructed using a quarter wave-plate (λ/4), half wave plate (λ/2), and quarter wave-plate(λ/4) at +45◦, θ, -45◦ with respect to vertical polarization, respectively. The DRO output transmission can be varied continuously from 0.6% to 50%, attaining optimum output coupling of 1.4% for maximum power extraction of 2.45 W when pumped with an incident power of 5 W at 47◦C crystal temperature at signal and idler wavelength of 1054 nm and 1074 nm, respectively. The maximum pump depletion of 89% is obtained with a conversion efficiency of 49%. The transmission through a GP-based mirror delivers the tunable optimum output power across the tuning wavelength range ⪆ 90 nm. This showcased GP-mirror concept presents an avenue for enhancing the capabilities and management of coherent sources adjustable across various spectral ranges and across all time scales, ranging from continuous-wave to ultrafast femtosecond domains.
