Abstract
This letter describes a resonantly two-photon pumped frequency converter with application to the generation of tunable ultraviolet and vacuum ultraviolet radiation and also to infrared-to-visible up-conversion and imaging. Calculations show that up-conversion power efficiencies in excess of 100% should be obtainable with tunable dye lasers having peak powers in the hundred watt to kilowatt range.Keywords
