SGER: Efficient Second Harmonic Generation Based on a NovelIntensity-Modulation Quasi-Phase-Matching Technique

这是一份申请探索性研究小额资助（SGER）奖的提案。该提案描述了一个为期一年的活动，其中PI将对使用强度调制实现准相位匹配（IMQPM）的新概念进行研究，以提高非线性光学晶体中二次谐波产生的效率。该提案旨在利用LiNbO3上的单通道波导结构来演示这个新概念，并分析在双通道波导结构中实现IMQPM的可能性。

This is a proposal requesting consideration for a Small Grant for Exploratory Research (SGER) award. The proposal describes a one-year activity in which the PI will conduct an investigation on a new concept using intensity modulation to achieve quasi-phase matching (IMQPM) for improving the efficiency of second harmonic generation in a nonlinear optical crystal. The proposal is aimed at demonstration of this new concept using a single channel waveguide structure on LiNbO3 and analyzing the possibility of implementing the IMQPM in a dual-channel waveguide structure.
