摘要：

We present an analytical calculation of the second-order susceptibility for second-harmonic generation of visible radiation in asymmetric AlGaAs quantum wells. The calculation suggests that a second-order susceptibility magnitude equal to that of bulk GaAs can be achieved in optimally designed wells. The sign of the second-order susceptibility can be changed by inverting the well asymmetry so that quasiphase matching of the second-harmonic generation is possible. Simulation of a multiquantum well surface emitting waveguide designed for quasiphase-matched second-harmonic generation indicates that second-harmonic conversion efficiency can be improved by over a factor of 100.
