We built and studied a singly resonant optical parametric oscillator using a 5%MgO:PPLN partial cylinder pumped by a sub-nanosecond microlaser emitting 1064 nm at a repetition rate of 1kHz. It is continuously tunable from 1410 nm up to 4330 nm by rotating the cylinder and a total energy of several micro Joules is emitted with a beam quality factor M² lower than 3.
