Phase-Matched 2nd-Harmonic Generation in Poled Polymer Wave-Guide Based on a Main-Chain Polymer
The electric field-induced dynamic phase-matching of second harmonic generation (SHG) waveguide was demonstrated by using a main chain polyarylamine. The linear and nonlinear optical properties of this polymer are presented. The optimum phase-matching thickness was controlled by applying an electric field to the polymer waveguide. The effective phase matching thickness variation induced by poling is about 0.025 mu m that is six times larger than full width at the half-maximum (FWHM) of phase-matching thickness in conventional slab waveguide. The efficient phase-matched SHG was observed from a taperless slab waveguide. The optical loss of poled polymer on glass substrate at 632.8 nm was 2.7 dB/cm.
