Optimized cavity-less designs of fiber parametric amplifiers (FOPA) associated with Thulium amplification capable of high CW powers, wide tunability and modulation will be presented. We also present how parametric conversion can be extended deeper in the Mid-IR by engineering of non-silica mixing platforms.Mid- infrared sourcesnonlinear opticswavelength conversiontext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
