Abstract

We report on the design of a tunable, near-infrared (NIR) femtosecond noncollinear optical parametric amplifier (OPA) seeded by gain-managed nonlinear amplified1 parabolic pulses. In our numerical simulations, we achieve signal and idler amplification bandwidths between 1000-1180 nm and 914-1062 nm; the second harmonic of these pulses corresponds directly to the visible spectrum. This appreciable value is due to the high spectral energy density of our seed pulses. Fiber-amplified pulses thus present a method to engineer efficient OPA systems that can operate at high-average powers in the NIR and visible.
