A continuous wave (CW), extra-cavity singly resonant optical parametric oscillator (SRO) has been demonstrated. The SRO is based on 5% magnesium-oxide doped periodically-poled lithium niobate (MgO:PPLN) pumped by a CW Nd:YVO 4 /YVO 4 ring laser centered at 1064.4 nm. The nonlinear crystal temperature is kept at 120.0 ± 0.1°C and a domain period of 30 μm is used in this experiment. When the pump power is 11 W, an output power of 2.0 W at the idler wavelength of 3.479 μm has been obtained from the OPO. The optical-optical conversion efficiency is about 18.2%, and the slope efficiency is about 20.8%.
