چکیده
We present a method for controlling the efficiency of direct third-harmonic generation in quasi-periodic optical superlattices by means of the electro-optic effect. The calculated results manifest that this method is extremely efficient for achieving high efficiency of direct third-harmonic generation in predesigned quasi-phase-matched coupled parametric processes and is feasible at any given fundamental intensity. In addition, we demonstrate that the electro-optic control approach is significantly better than the temperature-control method.

Simulation and Design of an Organic Quantum Film Electrooptic Switch
In this paper the simulation and design of a quantum-film electro-optic switch is considered. This photonic device, is made from a new organic dipolar material called MNA or 2-methyl-4 nitroaniline, which possesses a high merit in comparison with it's inorganic counterparts (e.g. LiNbO3, GaAs, InSb, Quartz, etc). Montecarlo method is used to simulate the photon-it-electron interaction in this m...
متن کاملHigh-flux photon-pair source from electrically induced parametric down conversion after second-harmonic generation in single optical superlattice.
We present here a possible high-flux photon-pair source constructed by single lithium niobate optical superlattice (OSL) with a combined quasi-periodically and periodically poled structure, which is from the principle of electrically induced parametric down conversion (PDC) after second-harmonic generation (SHG), predicted by the united theory developed in this paper, in which SHG, PDC and elec...
متن کاملNonlinear Susceptibility and Second Harmonic Generation in Proton- Exchanged Lithium Niobate Waveguides
Lithium niobate (LiNbO3) is one of the most commonly used optical crystals because of its excellent electro-optic and nonlinear optical properties. Ease of waveguide fabrication and amenability to periodic poling has made lithium niobate highly attractive for quasi-phase-matched guided wave interactions such as second harmonic generation (SHG) and optical parametric amplification/oscillation [1...
متن کاملQuasi-Cw Ultraviolet Generation in a Dual-periodic LiTaO3 Superlattice by Frequency Tripling
We propose a dual-periodically domain-inverted structure for realizing an efficient third-harmonic generation at an arbitrary fundamental wavelength. The structure allows to couple two separate optical parametric processes, frequency doubling and frequency adding, through a cascaded quasi-phase-matched interaction, therefore, generate third-harmonic directly from a superlattice sample. As an ex...
متن کاملQuasi-periodic and random quasi-phase matching of high harmonic generation.
Quasi-phase matching schemes employing quasi-periodic or random spatial modulations, previously applied to perturbative nonlinear optics, are demonstrated theoretically for the extreme nonlinear optical process of high harmonic generation. We show that quasi-periodic quasi-phase matching of high harmonic generation can be used for simultaneous enhancement of arbitrarily chosen spectral regions....
