Abstract
We demonstrate the operation of a noncollinear optical parametric amplifier that is pumped by just a few microjoules of pulses with duration. The device delivers sub- pulses tunable from to beyond and pulse energies up to when it is pumped with of energy. The design of the single-stage amplifier has been carefully optimized, and the design considerations are discussed.
