Thermal lensing 3 months ago
AI Summary: Investigate discrepancies between theoretical predictions and experimental results regarding thermal lensing in an optical parametric amplifier (OPO). The task involves analyzing existing simulation code (provided in the project description) to determine if the observed deviations are due to thermal lensing, quasi-phase-matching (QPM) issues, UV absorption, or a combination thereof. This may require modifying the existing simulation to incorporate more realistic thermal effects or exploring alternative explanations for the observed behavior.
