In this paper, a new 2-D frequency converter based on second harmonic generation (SHG) in GaAs photonic crystal waveguides is proposed. The input waveguide, where the second order nonlinear process takes place, is coupled to a secondary waveguide that is designed to allow only SH propagation. A row of photonic crystal microcavity resonators is then placed parallel to the waveguides in order to assist...
We predict, that extremely narrow beams (of the width of few wavelengths) can be used for an efficient second harmonic generation in quadratic-nonlinear photonic crystals, tuned to the subdiffractive (self-collimating) regime simultaneously for the both, fundamental and the second harmonics, waves. We prove the idea analytically, by harmonic expansion technique, and numerically, by finite difference...
Summary form only given. Much attention has been recently focused on the investigation of photonic band gap (PBG) structures. In particular, it was demonstrated that unusual dispersion properties of such structures allow compact tunable optical delay lines to be implemented, parameters of short laser pulses to be controlled, and nonlinear-optical interactions to be phase-matched. We employ the finite...
