We report a direct observation on the unique laterally emitted surface second harmonic generation (SHG) in a single ZnTe nanowire. The highly directional surface SHG signal that polarizes along the direction vertical to the nanowire growth…
Second harmonic optical coherence tomography, which uses coherence gating of second-order nonlinear optical response of biological tissues for imaging, is described and demonstrated. Femtosecond laser pulses were used to excite second…
Designing the shape of silicon nanoparticles has been shown to be an effective approach to increasing overlap between electric and magnetic dipole resonances thereby achieving directional scattering and decrease of reflection. Variations of…
We study nonlinear effects in two-dimensional photonic metasurfaces supporting topologically-protected helical edge states at the nanoscale. We observe strong third-harmonic generation mediated by optical nonlinearities boosted by…
Metallic nanostructures exhibit strong nonlinear-optical response at surface plasmon resonances, where the light-matter coupling efficiency is enhanced. An active modulation of this response can be realized by means of an external magnetic…
Surface plasmon resonances, the coherent oscillation of free electrons, can concentrate incident field into small volumes much smaller than the incident wavelength. The intense fields at these \textit{hot spots} enhance the light-matter…
In this work, we utilize thin dielectric meta-atoms placed on a silver substrate to efficiently enhance and manipulate the third harmonic generation. We theoretically and experimentally reveal that when the structural symmetry of the…
We explain the Lorentz resonances in plasmonic crystals that consist of 2D nano dielectric inclusions as the interaction between resonant material properties and geometric resonances of electrostatic nature. One example of such plasmonic…
We introduce a nonlinear photonic system that enables asymmetric localization and unidirectional transfer of an electromagnetic wave through the second harmonic generation process. Our proposed scattering setup consists of a…
We demonstrate a novel scheme to dramatically enhance both the second- and third-harmonic generation in a graphene-insulator-graphene metasurface. The key underlying feature of our approach is the existence of a double-resonance phenomenon,…
Dynamical control of the nonlinear optical properties of solids -- with light itself -- will be essential for future ultrafast photonic technologies. Previously, methods to modulate nonlinear processes including second-harmonic generation…
We theoretically investigate second harmonic generation in extremely narrow, sub-wavelength semiconductor and dielectric waveguides. We discuss a novel guiding mechanism characterized by the inhibition of diffraction and the suppression of…
Second and third harmonic generation in the opaque region of a GaAs wafer is experimentally observed both in transmission and reflection. These harmonic components can propagate through an opaque material as long as the pump is tuned to a…
We theoretically predict efficient optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) from a few hundred nanometer thick slab consisting of a quadratic nonlinear anisotropic medium whose linear principal permittivities are, at the fundamental…
We present theoretical investigations of high-order harmonic generation (HHG) resulting from the interaction of noble gases with localized surface plasmons. These plasmonic fields are produced when a metal nanoparticle is subject to a…
We demonstrate second harmonic generation in photonic crystal cavities in (001) and (111)B oriented GaAs. The fundamental resonance is at 1800 nm, leading to second harmonic below the GaAs bandgap. Below-bandgap operation minimizes…
Doubly enhanced third harmonic generation (THG) is realized by the electric dipole resonance (EDR) in silicon nanodisks placed onto a metallic film at near-infrared. By introducing the metal substrate, the perfect electric conductor (PEC)…
We demonstrate second and third harmonic generation from a GaP substrate 500{\mu}m thick. The second harmonic field is tuned at the absorption resonance at 335nm, and the third harmonic signal is tuned at 223nm, in a range where the…
Nonlinear optical effects have been studied extensively in microresonators as more photonics applications transition to integrated on-chip platforms. Due to low optical losses and small mode volumes, microresonators are demonstrably the…
We demonstrate a nonlinear metamaterial which enhance higher order harmonics in microwave frequency regime. Nonlinearity in the structure is introduced by adding a varactor diode in the common slit of the double split ring resonator (DSRR)…
