NONLINEAR OPTICS (PHYC/ECE 568) Fall 2015 - Instructor: M. Sheik-Bahae University of New Mexico Homework #4, Due Thu Sept. 24 Problem 1. SHG in KDP: a. Calculate the type-I phase matching angle for SHG in KDP using 1.06 m output of a Nd:YAG laser. b. For a beam radius w0=500 m, calculate the aperture length defined as la= w0 / where is the Poynting vector walk-off angle. Obtain the aperture length for w0=15 m and discuss the role of additional limitations that may be imposed due to diffraction of the beam. Problem 2. SHG Bandwidth: a. Calculate the bandwidth associated with a phase-matched SHG process in terms of the group velocities vg( 1) and vg(2 1). In the low-depletion approximation, this corresponds to the width of the Sinc2 function which is taken to be (kL)=2 with L denoting the length of the nonlinear crystal. Hint: Use the first-order term in the Taylor series expansion of k( ). b. Discuss how your results in (a) explains the limitation on the SHG-efficiency when ultrashort laser pulses are used. Problem 3. Manley-Rowe Relations for Imaginary (2) Repeat the derivation of Manley-Rowe relations (section 2.5, Boyd, 3rd ed.) but assume a purely imaginary (2) (2) =𝑖𝜒𝑖 . Write the new relationship for the three interacting waves involving dIj/dz, and corresponding photon numbers (1/ j) dIj/dz (j=1,2,3). Explain the photon number conservation or lack thereof.
