Abstract
Investigation results of angular structure formation in a picosecond t raveling-wave optical parametric generator (OPG) based on a KDP crysta l (type II phase matching) pumped by intersecting beams are presented. It is demonstrated that the angular structure of the OPG output radia tion is controlled by pump geometry. Frequency-tuned diffraction-limit ed output even in a single-pass OPG was observed.
