We measured the spectrum and energy of infrared triple photons generated in a phase-matched KTiOPO4 crystal pumped by picosecond beams at 532 and 1662 nm. The experimental data are in good agreement with our model, taking into account the spectral linewidths of the incident beams as well as a parasitic Kerr effect.

Much effort has been devoted to synthesizing nonlinear optical crystals with efficient second harmonic responses. Herein, a tantalum phosphate crystal NaTaPO with a moderate second harmonic response was obtained using self-fluxes of NaHPO and NaHPO. NaTaPO belongs to the c space group of monoclinic systems with cell parameters of = 8.
