We report on a high-power, twin-band mid-infrared (MIR) periodically poled MgO-doped ${{\rm LiNbO}_3}$LiNbO (PPMgLN) optical parametric oscillator (OPO) pumped by a near-infrared pulsed OPO with 20 kHz of repetition rate. The pump source has a central wavelength of 1.679 µm and a linewidth of 0.12 n...
