Abstract

Analysis of optical properties of mid-infrared-transparent nonlinear crystals reveals octave phase matching for a highly efficient optical parametric amplification of single-cycle electromagnetic field waveforms within the 3- to 12-μm wavelength range, recently demonstrated in experiments.
