Abstract
Synchronously pumped optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) provide ultra-fast light pulses at tuneable wavelengths. Their primary drawback is the need for precise cavity control (temperature and length), with flexibility issues such as fixed repetition rates and marginally tuneable pulse widths. Targeting a simpler and versatile OPO, we explore the inherent disorder of the refractive index in single-mode fibres realising the first random OPO -- the parametric analogous of random lasers. This novel approach uses modulation instability (\(\chi^{(3)}\) non-linearity) for parametric amplification and Rayleigh scattering for feedback. The pulsed system exhibits high inter-pulse coherence (coherence time of $\sim$0.4~ms), offering adjustable repetition rates (16.6 - 2000 kHz) and pulse widths (0.69 - 47.9 ns). Moreover, it operates continuously without temperature control loops, resulting in a robust and flexible device, which would find direct application in LiDAR technology. This work sets the stage for future random OPOs using different parametric amplification mechanisms.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
