Abstract
In this paper we report optical parametric amplification in single crystals of AgGaGeS/sub 4/ using pump pulses at 820 nm to produce femtosecond pulses in the mid-IR tunable between 3.8 and 11 /spl mu/m. This new crystal is considered to be used in high-power applications and the greater variety of phase-matching schemes due to its larger birefringence and biaxial nature.
