Abstract
Optical second harmonics (SH) has important applications in many fields, such as micro-imaging techniques and extending the wavelength band of laser light sources. Lithium niobate (LiNbO3) can achieve a high SH conversion efficiency by its large second-order nonlinear coefficient. Conventional LiNbO3 devices require long interaction lengths and meet phase matching requirements. Thin-film lithium niobium oxide enables better optical mode confinement and improves SH conversion efficiency. A distributed Bragg reflection trapezoidal grating SH- conversion device based on quasi-bound states of continuous LiNbO3 thin films is designed. The device can generate narrow-band resonances with five high Q-factors over a broadband width of 500–800 nm. Based on the multistage expansion algorithm and the magnetic field map obtained by simulation, a suitable resonant mode is selected to obtain a higher SH generation efficiency. By rationally designing the structural parameters of the device as well as the incident light intensity, a high SH generation efficiency of up to 3.35 × 10−3 can be obtained. As a result, our devices are designed for high efficiency, low loss and multi-band SH generation devices.
期刊介绍:
Optics Communications invites original and timely contributions containing new results in various fields of optics and photonics. The journal considers theoretical and experimental research in areas ranging from the fundamental properties of light to technological applications. Topics covered include classical and quantum optics, optical physics and light-matter interactions, lasers, imaging, guided-wave optics and optical information processing. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers concentrating on mathematical and computational issues, with limited connection to optics, are not suitable for publication in the Journal. Similarly, small technical advances, or papers concerned only with engineering applications or issues of materials science fall outside the journal scope.
