Quadratic spatial soliton generation by seeded downconversion of a strong harmonic pump beam: errata.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two-dimensional quadratic spatial solitons were generated experimentally near phase-matching conditions for type II frequency doubling in KTP by the seeding of a strong second-harmonic field with a weak input at the fundamental wavelength. The self-trapped beams were shown to be insensitive to the energy, phase, and polarization of the fundamental-frequency seed input beam.

Observation of twin beam correlations and quadrature entanglement by frequency doubling in a two-port resonator
We demonstrate production of short wavelength beams with nonclassical intensity correlations and quadrature entanglement using second harmonic generation in a nonlinear resonator with two output ports. The two output beams at the harmonic frequency have no direct interaction but are both nonlinearly coupled to a common pump beam. The nonlinear coupling produces amplitude and phase correlations ...
متن کاملExperimental evidence of spontaneous symmetry breaking in intracavity type II second-harmonic generation with triple resonance.
We describe a spontaneous symmetry-breaking phenomenon between the intensities of the ordinary and extraordinary components of the fundamental field in intracavity type II harmonic generation. It is based on a triply resonant cavity containing a type II chi(2) crystal pumped at fundamental frequency omega0. The pump beam generates a second-harmonic mode at frequency 2omega0 that acts as a pump ...
متن کاملSoliton-induced nonlocal resonances observed through high-intensity tunable spectrally compressed second-harmonic peaks
Experimental data of femtosecond thick-crystal second-harmonic generation show that when tuning away from phase matching, a dominating narrow spectral peak appears in the second harmonic that can be tuned over hundreds of nanometers by changing the phase-mismatch parameter. Traditional theory explains this as phase matching between a sideband in the broadband pump to its second harmonic. Howeve...
متن کاملDesigning microstructured polymer optical fibers for cascaded quadratic soliton compression of femtosecond pulses
The dispersion of index-guiding microstructured polymer optical fibers is calculated for second-harmonic generation. The quadratic nonlinearity is assumed to come from poling of the polymer, which in this study is chosen to be the cyclic olefin copolymer Topas. We found a very large phase mismatch between the pump and the second-harmonic waves. Therefore the potential for cascaded quadratic sec...
متن کاملUltrafast and octave-spanning optical nonlinearities from strongly phase-mismatched quadratic interactions.
Cascaded nonlinearities have attracted much interest, but ultrafast applications have been seriously hampered by the simultaneous requirements of being near phase matching and having ultrafast femtosecond response times. Here we show that in strongly phase-mismatched nonlinear frequency conversion crystals the pump pulse can experience a large and extremely broadband self-defocusing cascaded Ke...
