Abstract: We demonstrate the operation of a 100-kHz noncollinearly phase matched optical parametric amplifier that is pumped by just a few µJ of 800 nm pulses with 50 fs duration. The device delivers sub-20 fs pulses tunable from 460 nm to beyond 1 µm and pulse energies up to 750 nJ when pumped with 7 µJ. The design of the single stage amplifier has been carefully optimized and the design considerations are discussed.
