  2. 1. Domain engineering in KTiOPO4

    Author : Carlota Canalias; Fredrik Laurell; Benoît Boulanger; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quasi-phase matching; KTiOPO4; ferroelectric domains; atomic force microscopy; periodic electric field poling; polarization switching; second harmonic generation; Optical physics; Optisk fysik;

    Abstract : Ferroelectric crystals are commonly used in nonlinear optics for frequency conversion of laser radiation. The quasi-phase matching (QPM) approach uses a periodically modulated nonlinearity that can be achieved by periodically inverting domains in ferroelectric crystals and allows versatile and efficient frequency conversion in the whole transparency region of the material.

  4. 2. Studies on Domain Dynamics in Nonlinear Optical Ferroelectric Oxide Crystals

    Author : Hoda Kianirad; Fredrik Laurell; Carlota Canalias; Sakellaris Mailis; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Nonlinear optical frequency conversion is the key technology for modifying laser output radiation, in order to target specific applications. The most powerful technique to obtain tailored second-order nonlinear interactions is the quasi-phasematching (QPM) approach. READ MORE

  5. 3. Advanced nano- and microdomain engineering of Rb-doped KTiOPO4 for nonlinear optical applications

    Author : Charlotte Liljestrand; Carlota Canalias; Sunao Kurimura; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; KTiOPO4; nonlinear optics; MOPO; quasi-phase matching; SHG; ferroelectrics; domain structuring; periodic poling; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Fine-pitch ferroelectric domain gratings are extensively used for generation of light in the visible and near-infrared spectral regions through quasi-phase matched (QPM) frequency conversion. Sub-μm QPM devices enables demonstration of nonlinear optics with counterpropagating waves, a field of nonlinear optics which remains sparsely explored due to the difficulty of fabricatinghigh quality gratings.

  6. 4. Studies on Domain Wall Properties andDynamics in KTiOPO4 and Rb-doped KTiOPO4

    Author : Gustav Lindgren; Carlota Canalias; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : KTiOPO4 (KTP) and Rb-doped KTP (RKTP) are two of the most attractive nonlinear opticalmaterials for engineering of periodically poled domain structures, commonly used as frequencyconversiondevices for laser radiation via the quasi-phase matching (QPM) technique. Thesematerials have excellent non-linearity, wide transparency windows and high resistance to opticaldamage. READ MORE

  7. 5. Quasi-phase matched devices in Rb-doped KTiOPO4: counterpropagating nonlinear interactions, domain dynamics, and waveguides

    Author : Patrick Mutter; Carlota Canalias; Christopher Phillips; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Abstract Nonlinear interactions involving counterpropagating photons are gaining much attention in classical and quantum optics due to their unique properties that are very difficult, if not impossible, to realize in conventional co-propagating three-wave mixing. However, the large phase mismatch between the interacting waves demands an unnaturally large material birefringence or high-quality quasi-phasematched (QPM) devices with sub-µm periods. READ MORE
