Conical second harmonic generation in one-dimension nonlinear photonic crystal

摘要

We observed conical second-harmonic generation in a one-dimension anomalous-dispersion-like medium, which manifests itself as scattering-assisted nonlinear interaction via quasi-phase-matching sum frequency process. The parameters for the ring-shaped second harmonic beam are analyzed experimentally and theoretically, which disclose the structure information of the nonlinear photonic crystal and imply potential applications as characterization methods. Furthermore, by varying the angles of incident beam, the conical beam can be significantly enhanced owing to collinear nonlinear coupling between the input beam and the scattering light.
