Second-harmonic generation enabled by longitudinal electric-field components in photonic wire waveguides

Abstract: We investigate second-harmonic generation in III-V semiconductor wire waveguides aligned with a crystallographic axis. In this direction, because of the single nonzero tensor element coming from the zinc-blende symmetry of III-V semiconductors, only frequency conversion by mixing with the longitudinal components of the optical fields is allowed. We experimentally study the impact of the propagation direction on the conversion efficiency and confirm the role played by the longitudinal components through the exc… Show more

“…In practice however, more complex nonlinear wave mixing can be expected because the optical modes in high index contrast waveguides display large longitudinal components. We recently experimentally demonstrated SHG enabled by longitudinal components in III-V wire waveguides [8]. Here we further investigate the impact of strong longitudinal components on SHG.…”
