Second-harmonic generation induced by electric currents in GaAs.
We demonstrate a new, nonlinear optical effect of electric currents. First, a steady current is generated by applying a voltage on a doped GaAs crystal. We demonstrate that this current induces second-harmonic generation of a probe laser pulse. Second, we optically inject a transient current in an undoped GaAs crystal by using a pair of ultrafast laser pulses and demonstrate that it induces the...
متن کاملElectric-field-induced second-harmonic generation in GaN devices.
Electric-field-induced second-harmonic generation is used to detect electric fields in a GaN UV Schottky photodiode and in a GaN light-emitting diode. The second-harmonic signal is measured as a function of bias voltage and incident laser power. This technique is sensitive to small applied voltages and can be used to track electronic waveforms. The photocurrent generated by this technique is fo...
متن کاملPhase-Locked Second Harmonic Generation in GaAs nanocavities
We theoretically study light propagation through sub-wavelength apertures on a silver substrate filled with GaAs, in the enhanced transmission regime. We predict enhanced conversion efficiencies even under high absorption conditions. ©2010 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (240.6680) Surface Plasmon, (120.7000) Transmission, (240.3695) Linear and nonlinear light scattering from surfaces, (...
متن کاملThree-dimensional electric field visualization utilizing electric-field-induced second-harmonic generation in nematic liquid crystals.
An electric-field-induced second-harmonic-generation signal in a nematic liquid crystal is used to map the electric field in an integrated-circuit-like sample. Since the electric-field-induced second-harmonic-generation signal intensity exhibits a strong dependence on the polarization of the incident laser beam, both the amplitude and the orientation of the electric field vectors can be measure...
متن کاملSecond-harmonic generation in vortex-induced waveguides.
We study the second-harmonic generation and localization of light in a reconfigurable waveguide induced by an optical vortex soliton in a defocusing Kerr medium. We show that the vortex-induced waveguide greatly improves conversion efficiency from the fundamental to the second-harmonic field.
