Nonlinear phase change in type II second-harmonic generation under exact phase-matched conditions.

چکیده
The process of type II second-harmonic generation has been investigated theoretically. It is found that, unlike in the process of type I second-harmonic generation, phase matching is not necessary for a significant shift of the pump wave phase to be produced. The simple inequality of the intensities of interacting waves suffices for this effect to occur.

Simultaneous type I and type II Čerenkov-phase matched second-harmonic generation in disordered nonlinear photonic structures.
We observe simultaneous type I and II Čerenkov-phase matched second-harmonic generation in a disordered nonlinear photonic crystal. The mean width of the disordered ferroelectric domains and the laser beam width are adjusted to be on the same length scale. We analyze the polarization properties, emission angles and intensities of each process.
متن کاملVoltage-controlled phase matching in quadrupole second-harmonic generation.
We have observed strong phase-matched (PM) quadrupole optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) from nematic liquid crystals that possess inversion symmetry. PM conditions were achieved for two configurations by voltage control of the molecular orientation and thus of the refractive indices. Quadrupole SHG was separated from electric-field-induced dipole-type SHG with the help of time-gated meas...
متن کاملNonlinear Frequency Conversion in a Crystalline Whispering-gallery Mode Disk
We are developing high quality factor whisperinggallery mode resonator (WGMR) disks for use in quantum information experiments. Our polished lithium niobate disks achieved a quality factors of Q > 10. We observed the generation of λ = 532 nm through Type-I, noncritically phase matched second harmonic generation in our whispering-gallery mode resonator disk. Unexpectedly, we observed this second...
متن کاملPhase Matching in presence of feedback: Higher order terms and enhancement of nonlinear interactions
Our study shows that higher terms in phase matching conditions, usually neglected, can in fact drastically affect the dynamics in distributed feedback gratings. We showed that phase matching conditions and standard Bloch theory are totally inadequate to predict optimum second harmonic generation when fields’ overlap and localization effects rule the nonlinear dynamics. We designed an optimized ...
متن کاملType-II quasi phase matching in periodically intermixed semiconductor superlattice waveguides.
Second-harmonic generation using the type-II polarization configuration is demonstrated in quasi-phase-matched GaAs radicalAlGaAs superlattice waveguides. Phase-matching wavelengths and conversion efficiencies were determined for several quasi-phase-matching periods using 1.9 ps pulses. Saturation effects at high input power were concluded to be the result of third-order nonlinear effects.
