Abstract:Nonlinear optical processes lie at the heart of frequency
tunable
coherent light sources, including entangled photon sources and squeezed
states of light, and they have become ubiquitous in fields ranging
from ultrafast spectroscopy to quantum information processing. van
der Waals materials have recently emerged as dynamically tunable and
highly nonlinear optical platforms with ultracompact footprints. In
particular, semiconducting materials like transition metal dichalcogenides
possess large optical nonlinear… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
