Extreme Nonlinear Optics (high harmonic generation and attosecond generation)
This method relies on the possibility of FourierSynthesis of discrete lines over a broad spectrum (similar to mode-locking). A Raman medium is characterized by its Raman frequency ω0, which can be the difference between two rotational or vibrational lines. When we apply a laser excitation ωL − ωs close to ω0, we can obtain gain at the stokes (ωL−nω0) and anti-stokes (ωL+nω0) frequencies, the Ra...
متن کاملUniversity of Groningen CHIRALITY IN NONLINEAR OPTICS AND OPTICAL SWITCHING
Chirality in molecular opto-electronics is limited sofar to the use of optically active liquid crystals and a number of optical phenomena are related to the helical macroscopic structure obtained by using one enantiomer, only. In this paper, the use of chirality in nonlinear optics and optical switching is demonstrated. The additional options offered by the combination of circularly polarized l...
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...
متن کاملMeasurement of nonlinear optical coefficients by phase-matched harmonic generation
A wide range of nonlinear optical coefficients and various systems of notation have been used to describe optical second-harmonic generation (5MG). To avoid possible confusion, the techniques of optical nonlinear coefficient measurement and the elementary theory of SHG are briefly reviewed. Absolute and relative nonlinear coefficient measurements by phase-matched SHG are described. The followin...
متن کاملHigh-speed measurement of rotational anisotropy nonlinear optical harmonic generation using position-sensitive detection.
We present a method of performing high-speed rotational anisotropy nonlinear optical harmonic generation experiments at rotational frequencies of several hertz by projecting the harmonic light reflected at different angles from a sample onto a stationary position-sensitive detector. The high rotational speed of the technique, 10(3) to 10(4) times larger than existing methods, permits precise me...
