A
broadband optical parametric chirped-pulse
amplifier applicable to the technical field of lasers. The
amplifier comprises a narrow-band
picosecond laser (70), a pulse
laser stretcher (10), an
optical coupling mirror (20), a beam expansion / contraction
system (30), a periodically poled
crystal (40), a spectroscope (50), and a pulse
laser compressor (60), wherein the periodically poled
crystal (40), which has a periodical domain inversion structure, is used for separating generated idler light from a chirped-pulse laser / pump light so as to suppress energy
backflow after the
broadband optical parametric chirped-pulse
amplifier enters the stage of saturated amplification; and thus, the broad optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification of a
broadband is realized. The broadband optical parametric chirped-pulse amplifier not only suppresses the
backflow of
signal light energy, but also has a very broad
gain bandwidth as a result of the simultaneous optimization between
pulse energy (conversion efficiency) and pulse width (
gain bandwidth), such that the outputtable peak power of the broadband optical parametric chirped-pulse amplifier is greatly increased, and the performance of the optical parametric chirped-pulse amplifier is improved.
