Giant Nernst effect due to fluctuating cooper pairs in superconductors.
A theory of the fluctuation-induced Nernst effect is developed for a two-dimensional superconductor in a perpendicular magnetic field. First, we derive a simple phenomenological formula for the Nernst coefficient, which naturally explains the giant Nernst signal due to fluctuating Cooper pairs. The latter signal is shown to be large even far from the transition and may exceed by orders of magni...
متن کاملHighly nonlinear dynamics of third-harmonic generation by focused beams
Beams that experience third-harmonic generation ~THG! also experience Kerr effects. With Kerr effects, beams do not take simple Gaussian shapes, but exhibit nonlinear dynamics. These nonlinear dynamics have an effect on the THG accumulated by focusing and then diverging beams. We formulate a self-consistent and complete set of nonlinear Schrödinger equations for a pair of coupled beams—a fundam...
متن کاملOptical Second Harmonic Generation in a Whispering Gallery Mode Resonator
We are developing high quality factor whispering gallery mode resonator (WGMR) disks for use in quantum information experiments. Our polished lithium niobate disks achieved a quality factor on the order of 10. We report the use of Type-I noncritical phase matching in a lithium niobate whispering gallery mode resonator disk to produce optical second harmonic generation at λ = 532nm. This process...
متن کاملEffect of Kondo resonance on optical third harmonic generation
We use the method of dynamical mean field thoery, to study the effect of Kondo resonance on optical third harmonic generation (THG) spectra of strongly correlated systems across the metal-insulator transition. We find that THG signals are proportional to the quasiparticle weight z of the Kondo peak, and are precursors of Mott-Hubbard gap formation. PACS 42.65.-k; 71.27.+a; 71.30.+h
متن کاملSecond-harmonic generation in a metal-clad nonlinear optical waveguide.
Efficient optical nonlinear effects in waveguides play an important role in integrated photonic functionalities. The dispersion characteristics need to be well designed to satisfy the phase-matching condition of the interacting waves in waveguides. Here we demonstrate a novel phase-matching process of second-harmonic generation (SHG) in a symmetrical metal-cladding optical waveguide (SMCOW) wit...
