Recently, Hybridized Parametric Amplification (HPA) was experimentally demonstrated as a solution for high-efficiency optical parametric amplification, with 44% pump-to-signal energy conversion achieved in a high-gain mid-infrared sub-picosecond amplifier [Flemens, et al., arXiv:2207.04147 [physics.optics] (2022)]. In HPA, concurrent idler Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) eliminates the idler during amplification [Flemens, et al., Opt. Express 29, 30590-30609 (2021)]. This produces a saturating amplifier gain, which enables highly uniform spatiotemporal conversion and thus high-efficiency high-gain amplification for bell-shaped pump beams. In this work, we analyze major practical considerations for designing and implementing an HPA system. Considerations investigated include phase-matching bandwidth, limitations due to self-phase modulation and cascaded chi(2) nonlinearity, the effect of gain guiding to overcome temporal and spatial walk-off, noise performance, and factors affecting beam quality and M-squared measurements. We find HPA to be a robust and feasible method for achieving high-efficiency parametric amplification.
