We present what is to our knowledge the first demonstration of handedness control of a midinfrared (6.0-12.5 mu m) vortex output from a 1 mu m vortex-pumped optical parametric oscillator by swapping the frequencies of the signal and idler outputs. Right-and left-handed vortex outputs of over 0.1 mJ were generated within a frequency range of 6.0 -11.0 mu m. Such a tunable midinfrared vortex laser with handedness selectivity will open the door to chiral organic materials processing. (C) 2015 Optical Society of America
