Abstract

We present an all-fiber high average power fiber optical parametric oscillator based on standard telecommunications dispersion-shifted fiber. The output of the oscillator is continuously tunable out to $\pm 28\mathrm{THz}$ from the pump wavelength. The average power of the oscillator’s output is in excess of $1.9\mathrm{W}$ in each sideband out to $\pm 25\mathrm{THz}$ detuning. Between 5 and $14\mathrm{THz}$ detuning, the average power of the Stokes output is in excess of $3.8\mathrm{W}$.
