摘要
A bulk of LiNbO3 was periodically poled in two dimensions to achieve noncollinear second-harmonic generation. The sample was fabricated using an electron-beam indirect exposure. This method used a dielectric buffer layer deposited on LiNbO3 Z(-)-polar face to trap the incident electrons. These localized electrons formed a charge droplet which generated a strong electric field and triggered the domain inversion process in the LiNbO3. Tailored two-dimensional domain configurations enabled quasi-phase-matched frequency doubling of a Nd:YLF laser at 15 different input angles. The measured angular dependence was in agreement with calculations based on the nonlinear reciprocal lattice vectors of the poled structure. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
