Abstract

Angular dispersion of the signal beam inside the nonlinear media is taken into account to improve the non-collinear phase-matching range. Simulations ran for BBO, LBO and KDP crystals predict that bandwitdth increase is possible for most of the application spectral range and that is can surpass one order of magnitude in some particular configurations.
