Abstract
The interaction of four waves in the resonant cascaded surface-emittin g second-harmonic-generation structure is analyzed theoretically. The inherent waveguide birefringence is shown to result in the large self- phase modulation as well as in the self-rotation of the polarization d irection. The equivalent nonlinear index of refraction is calculated, and the potential device applications are considered.
