摘要
The direction, polarization, and intensity of second-harmonic light beams generated in a crystal of NaClO3 have been observed as a function of the angle of incidence, when the primary laser beam is incident from a denser linear fluid. When the angle of incidence θi is smaller than the critical angle for total reflection θcrit(ω), a reflected harmonic beam and two distinct spatially resolved transmitted harmonic beams with polarizations precessing in opposite senses are observed. When θcrit(2ω)>θi>θcrit(ω), the incident laser power is totally reflected, but one of the transmitted harmonic beams still exists. For θi>θcrit(2ω), only the reflected harmonic beam remains. When two totally reflected laser beams are incident from opposite sides of the normal, second-harmonic radiation occurs in the direction of both the inward and outward normal. The results agree quantitatively with the theory of Bloembergen and Pershan. © 1969 The American Physical Society.
