An ultrafast coherent long wavelength MIR source based on difference frequency generation was demonstrated. An average power of 2.5 mW at ∼18 μm was achieved. The angular distribution of the generated MIR source under the condition of tight-focusing limit shows the onset of conical emission of the MIR beam due to on-axis phase mismatching.
