摘要
Nonlinear photonic crystals formed by two-dimensional periodic poling of the quadratic susceptibility chi((2)) can support quasi-phase-matched harmonic generation. The frequency-conversion efficiency depends on the photonic crystal's poling pattern through certain Fourier coefficients of the poling function. Aprocedureisdescribed for finding those poling patterns that are most efficient for any specific quasi-phase-matched frequency conversion scheme. (C) 2003 Optical Society of America.
