چکیده
In a one-dimensional periodic nonlinear χ (2) medium, by choosing a proper material and geometrical parameters of the structure, it is possible to obtain two matching conditions for simultaneous generation of second and third harmonics. This leads to new diversity of the processes of the resonant three-wave interactions, which are discussed within the framework of slowly varying envelope approach. In particular, we concentrate on the fractional conversion of the frequency ω → (2/3)ω. This phenomenon occurs by means of intermediate energy transfer to the first harmonic at the frequency ω/3 and can be controlled by this mode. By analogy the same medium allows " nondirect " second harmonic generation, controlled by the cubic harmonic. Propagation of localized pulses in the form two coupled bright solitons on first and third harmonics and a dark soliton on the second harmonic is possible.

Coherent Fano resonances in a plasmonic nanocluster enhance optical four-wave mixing.
Plasmonic nanoclusters, an ordered assembly of coupled metallic nanoparticles, support unique spectral features known as Fano resonances due to the coupling between their subradiant and superradiant plasmon modes. Within the Fano resonance, absorption is significantly enhanced, giving rise to highly localized, intense near fields with the potential to enhance nonlinear optical processes. Here, ...
متن کاملSecond-harmonic generation in doubly resonant microcavities with periodic dielectric mirrors.
Strong enhancement of second-harmonic generation (SHG) is expected in one-dimensional microcavities when double resonance for the pump and the harmonic fields, as well as phase matching, are achieved. The realization of a doubly resonant microcavity with dielectric mirrors made of nonbirefringent materials is difficult because of the refractive index dispersion of the constituent media. Here we...

Extensive studies of microwave properties of composite metallic structures led to the experimental demonstration of left-handed metamaterials [1] suggested long time ago [2]. Such metamaterials are created by resonant magnetic elements and operate for the wavelengths much larger than the period, allowing for the macroscopic effective medium description. The parameters of the effective medium de...

The modes of nonlinear propagation of the two-component electromagnetic pulses through optically uniaxial media containing resonant particles are studied. The features of their manifestation in the " dense " media and in the media with expressed positive and negative birefringences are discussed. It is shown that exponentially and rationally decreasing solutions of the system of material and wa...
متن کاملStabilization and destabilization of second-order solitons against perturbations in the nonlinear Schrödinger equation.
We consider splitting and stabilization of second-order solitons (2-soliton breathers) in a model based on the nonlinear Schrodinger equation, which includes a small quintic term, and weak resonant nonlinearity management (NLM), i.e., time-periodic modulation of the cubic coefficient, at the frequency close to that of shape oscillations of the 2-soliton. The model applies to the light propagati...
