We present a high-power single-frequency continuously tunable mid-infrared (MIR) singly resonant optical parametric oscillator (SRO) using 80-mm-long MgO-doped PPLN (MgO: PPLN) crystal pumped by a continuous-wave Yb-fiber laser. The SROhaving four-mirror ring-cavity configuration is tunable in theMIR band of 3761-3970 nm yielding a maximum power of 2W at 3895 nm when incident pump power is approximate to 16 W. Due to strong phonon-polariton coupling in MgO: PPLN crystal, the intracavity signal-beam spectrum exhibits multiple peaks depicting stimulated polariton scattering. By replacing one of the cavity mirrors with a 5% outcoupler, the stimulated polariton modes are suppressed as a consequence of additional cavity losses. Along with a tunable signal extending from 1453 to 1484 nm, we obtained the maximum signal power of approximate to 4W at 1464 nm at the maximum pump power of approximate to 16W. In addition, we have measured the frequency and power stability of the outcoupled signal and idler beams over long as well as short durations. The improvement in beam quality of idler was discernible when the intracavity signal was outcoupled, which is essentially a consequence of reduced thermal load on MgO: PPLN crystal.
