Description
We demonstrate simple and efficient broadband mid-infrared generation via optical parametric amplification driven inside a dispersion-engineered nanophotonic waveguide. Using a commercially-available pulsed pump laser centered at 1045 nm and a CW telecom seed, we achieve up to 60% of conversion efficiency and 140 nm of mid-infrared spectral bandwidth.
