Abstract: The possibility of using group velocity matching of interacting waves in nonlinear optical crystals for frequency doubling of a femtosecond Cr:forsterite laser radiation is analysed. It is shown that exact group velocity matching can be realised in a partially deuterated CDA crystal and an LBO crystal by tuning polar and azimuthal angles. SHG for 130-fs pulses from a Cr:forsterite laser in partially deuterated CDA crystals of different length was experimentally studied.
