چکیده
The field of nonlinear optics has developed rapidly since its beginning in 1961. This development is in both the theory of nonlinear effects and the theory of nonlinear interactions in solids, and in the applications of nonlinear devices. This review discusses nonlinear interactions in solids and the resultant nonlinear coupling of electromagnetic waves that leads to second harmonic generation, optical mixing, and optical parametric oscillation. Material requirements for device applications are considered, and important nonlinear material properties summarized. At the outset, a brief review of the development of nonlinear optics and devices is in order to provide perspective of this rapidly growing field.
