Abstract

We investigate the accurate full broadband simulation of complex nonlinear optical processes. A mathematical model and numerical simulation techniques in the time domain are developed to simulate complex nonlinear optical processes without the usual used slowly varying envelope approximation. We illustrate the accuracy by numerical simulations. Furthermore, they are used to elucidate THz generation in periodically poled Lithium Niobate (PPLN) including optical harmonic generation.
