Nonlinear optical processes associated with even-order nonlinear susceptibilities are critical for both classical and quantum technologies. Inversion symmetry, however, prevents nonlinear optical responses mediated by even-order…
The discovery of second harmonic generation in 1961 marked the birth of nonlinear optics, unlocking a range of applications from frequency conversion to quantum light generation. Yet, phase matching in bulk nonlinear crystals remains a key…
