Chemical bond analysis of the second-order nonlinear optical behaviour of Mg-doped lithium niobate

چکیده
Second-order nonlinear optical properties of Mg-doped lithium niobate single crystals are quantitatively studied from the chemical bond viewpoint. The results show that the secondorder nonlinear optical response of Mg-doped LiNbO3 single crystals at 1079 nm decreases linearly with increasing Mg concentration in the crystal. This linear correlation is quantitatively evaluated in the current work.

Nonlinear cascaded femtosecond third harmonic generation was experimentally investigated pumped by 100 fs pulses at optical communication band 1550 nm using a multi-grating 5 mol. % MgO-doped periodically poled lithium niobate crystal. The optimized efficiency of 10.8% was achieved with the simultaneous phase-matching of the second harmonic and sum frequency process. And the third harmonic spec...
متن کاملOptimized Digital Optical Switch Using Proton Exchanged Lithium Niobate Waveguides
The main emphasis in developing DOS has been on achieving low crosstalk (CT). CT in the order of -30 dB is acceptable in conventional DOS and below that value is hard to achieve. Relatively low drive voltage (or power requirements) is also necessary to optimized DOS. This paper depicts the design of Y-branched digital optical switches (DOS) with optimized on-chip area coverage, reduced driving ...
متن کاملNonlinear dynamics of two-color optical vortices in lithium niobate crystals.
We study experimentally the nonlinear dynamics of two-color optical vortex beams in the presence of second-harmonic generation combined with the effects of photo- and thermal refraction, as well as self- and induced-phase modulation. We use an iron-doped lithium niobate crystal as a nonlinear medium for the vortex propagation and observe experimentally, depending on the laser wavelength, a deca...
