Efficient nonlinear phase shifts due to cascaded second-order processes in a counterpropagating quasi-phase-matched configuration

A counterpropagating quasi-phase-matched configuration is examined that is capable of efficiently producing second-order cascaded nonlinear phase shifts with minimal power lost to the second harmonic. For all-optical switching in a nonlinear Mach-Zehnder interferometer, the calculated minimum input power needed for switching (i.e., to yield a +/-pi/2 phase shift) is 40 times smaller than the power needed in the standard typeI copropagating configuration. The throughput of this counterpropagating device is 96% at the optimum switching point.     

Generation of large fifth-order nonlinear phase shifts by use of lossless<Emphasis Type="Italic">χ</Emphasis><Superscript>(2)</Superscript> cascaded nonlinear processescascaded nonlinear processes

It is shown that the cascaded fifth-order nonlinear phase shifts will increase with energy loss in the cascaded processes. Essentially different from the multi-photon absorption accompanied with inherent material nonlinearities, the loss of fundamental wave in a cascaded process is controllable and suppressible. By introducing difference frequencies generated from the reaction between the fundamental and its second harmonic after the cascaded processes, the fundamental wave can be free of energy loss, while the large cascaded fifth-order nonlinear phase shift is maintained.

Effects of transverse profile of pump field on second harmonic generation in periodic nonlinear materials

We report on a theoreticalanalysis of the effects of a converging pump field of Gaussian transverse profile on second harmonic generation in a periodic nonlinear material with quasi-phase-matching. The outputs of the centre intensity and the intensity flux for second harmonic generation are derived by simulation, based on the parameters of quasi-phase-mismatch, the waist and focus positions of the input pump beam. The results show that when the transverse profile of the pump field is taken into account, the quasi-phase-match value and focus position of input beam for maximal second harmonic generation flollow new criteria.

Effect of the polarization characteristics of the output mirror coating on the second harmonic generation: Theoretical analysis

Effect of the polarization characteristics of the output mirror coating of a V-shaped cavity blue diode pumped solid-state laser on the second harmonic generation is presented. The reflection-induced phase shift of the coating can cause a maximum 6% decrease of the conversing efficiency of the fundamental wave to the second harmonic wave. The transmission-induced phase shift of the coating can decrease the degree of linear polarization of the second harmonic output. In the case that the angles of both the polarization direction of the fundamental wave and the O-axial of LBO with respect the incident plane are equal and less than five degrees and the incident angle less than 30 degrees, the effects can be neglected. Conditions that can avoid the effect of the polarization characteristics of the output mirror coating on the second harmonic generation are also given.
