Three-Dimensional Beam Propagation Analysis of Quasi-Phase Matched Second Harmonic Generation Devices with Triangular and Semi-Circular Domain Inversion Profiles
نویسنده
چکیده
A three-dimensional beam propagation method based on a finite element scheme is described for the analysis of second harmonic generation devices. For the wide-angle beam propagation analysis, the Padé approximation is applied to the differential operator along the propagation direction. In order to avoid spurious reflection from the computational windows edges, the transparent boundary condition is introduced. Numerical results are shown for quasi-phase matched second harmonic generation devices using periodically domain-inverted LiNbO3 and LiTaO3 waveguides. The influences of the shape of domaininverted regions and the inversion width on the conversion efficiencies are investigated in detail. key words: nite element method, beam propagation method,

Electron-beam-induced domain poling in LiNbO3 for two-dimensional nonlinear frequency conversion
A bulk of LiNbO3 was periodically poled in two dimensions to achieve noncollinear second-harmonic generation. The sample was fabricated using an electron-beam indirect exposure. This method used a dielectric buffer layer deposited on LiNbO3 Z −-polar face to trap the incident electrons. These localized electrons formed a charge droplet which generated a strong electric field and triggered the d...
متن کاملAdiabatic shaping of quadratic solitons.
We show the principle of operation of a setup to adiabatically shape solitons in quadratic nonlinear media to different beam profiles and widths or different fractions of energy carried by the second-harmonic wave. The shaping mechanism is based on soliton generation and propagation in chirped, quasi-phase-matched samples.
متن کاملModeling comparison of second-harmonic generation in high-index-contrast devices
In this paper we model second-harmonic generation in a microphotonic structure using two different numerical methods. The proposed two-dimensional waveguide device is challenging as it incorporates a high-contrast grating, which instigates strong local enhancement but also radiation losses. The first simulation method extends the time-domain beam propagation method, whereas the second one build...
متن کاملNoncritically phase - matched second harmonic generation of blue light in Si [ 0 ] N - calix [ 41 arene slab type waveguides
Phase-matching (w+ TM:“) devices for generation of blue light using Si [ 0] N and optically nonlinear c&x [ 4]arene layers are designed, fabricated and tested. The devices show second harmonic peak power of 17 mW at 472.9 nm and 4.5 W at 481.6 nm after IQ mm propagation length of a 1 mm broad beam using fundamental peak power of 200 W and 500 W, respectively. The strong requirements of noncriti...
متن کاملDirectly produced three-color entanglement by quasi-phase-matched third-harmonic generation.
A new scheme is presented to directly produce fundamental, second-, and third-harmonic three-color continuous-variable (CV) entangled beams by cascaded quasi-phase-matched third-harmonic generation (THG) in an optical cavity. THG can be achieved with high efficiency through a coupled sum-frequency process between the second-harmonic and the fundamental fields. It is demonstrated that the three ...
