Abstract: | A new mechanism for obtaining a nonlinear phase shift has been proposed and schemes are described for its implementation.
As it is shown, the interference of two waves with intensity-dependent amplitude ratio coming from the second-harmonic generation
should produce the nonlinear phase shift. The sign and amount of nonlinear distortion of a beam wavefront is dependent on
the relative phase of the waves that is introduced by the phase element. The calculated value of n2
eff exceeds that connected with cascaded quadratic nonlinearity, at the same conditions.
