Abstract

A theoretical analysis of the condition of scalar phase-matched second harmonic generation and optical parametric oscillation (OPO) in single-crystalline samples Zn_0.52Mg_0.48Se is presented. The calculated range of pumping for second harmonic generation with phase matching is 5.1-13 μm. The tuning range of the optical parametric oscillator based on Zn_0.52Mg_0.48Se is determined. The combination of active media and nonlinear converter for OPO in the same optical element are proposed.
