Two-dimensional acceptance angles of a proustite upconverter
Abstract
Two-dimensional acceptance angles of a proustite upconverter pumped by a Nd:YAG laser have been measured and compared with theoretical results for several phase-match conditions. A seven degree acceptance angle of infrared upconversion is obtained for a 9.4 mm long proustite crystal under a tangential phase-match condition. The experimental and theoretical results agree reasonably well.
