Dispersion in the anisotropy of optical third-harmonic generation in silicon.
We present what are to our knowledge the first theoretical and experimental results for dispersion in the anisotropy (sigma) of chi?((3)) associated with optical third-harmonic generation in Si. The theory is based on a full empirical tight binding band-structure calculation, and the results agree well with our measurements for 0.72 microm < lambda < 1.9 microm. The calculated low-frequency lim...
متن کاملHarmonic generation in silicon nitride ring resonators.
We demonstrate second- and third-harmonic generation in a centrosymmetric CMOS-compatible material using ring resonators and integrated optical waveguides. The χ(2) response is induced by using the nanoscale structure of the waveguide to break the bulk symmetry of silicon nitride (Si3N4) with the silicon dioxide (SiO2) cladding. Using a high-Q ring resonator cavity to enhance the efficiency of ...
متن کاملEnhanced third-harmonic generation in silicon nanoparticles driven by magnetic response.
We observe enhanced third-harmonic generation from silicon nanodisks exhibiting both electric and magnetic dipolar resonances. Experimental characterization of the nonlinear optical response through third-harmonic microscopy and spectroscopy reveals that the third-harmonic generation is significantly enhanced in the vicinity of the magnetic dipole resonances. The field localization at the magne...
متن کاملThird harmonic generation from mid-IR to near-IR regions in a phase-matched silicon-silicon-nanocrystal hybrid plasmonic waveguide.
The conversion efficiency of third harmonic generation (THG) from mid-IR (3600 nm) to near-IR (1200 nm) regions in a silicon-silicon-nanocrystal hybrid plasmonic waveguide (SSHPW) was calculated. The required modal phase-matching condition (PMC) between the 0-th mode at fundamental wave (FW) and the 2-nd mode at third harmonic (TH) is achieved by carefully designing the waveguide geometry. Bene...
متن کاملGeneration of broadband VUV light using third-order cascaded processes.
We report the first demonstration of broadband VUV light generation through cascaded nonlinear wave mixing in a gas. Using a hollow-fiber geometry to achieve broad-bandwidth phase-matching, frequency conversion of ultrashort-pulse Ti:sapphire laser pulses from the visible into the deep UV around 200 and 160 nm is achieved. A new type of quasi-phase-matching is also observed in the VUV for the f...
