Abstract
In LiIO3 and BBO crystals the wave-matching conditions for femtosecond noncollinear parameteric light generation at lambda = 390 nm pumping wavelength are investigated. In the LiIO3 crystal simultaneous phase- and group-velocity-matching angles are determined. Parametric generati on occurred at 0.45-2.9-mum wavelengths by pumping with the second har monic of 150-fs Ti:sapphire laser pulses and is in qualitative agreeme nt with calculated directions in both crystals.
