Abstract
A new matrix method for the distributed nondepleted pump wave approximation and its extension to include pump wave depletion are proposed for the anal ysis of optical wave interactions through layered nonlinear media, which ta kes internal multiple reflections into account and, hence, can lead to a pr ecise analysis for both forward and backward nonlinear interactions. Using this method, several calculation results are presented for difference frequ ency generation and second-harmonic generation in periodically layered quas i-phase-matched media composed of Al0.2Ga0.8As and Al(0.38)Ga(0.62)AS. In a ddition, the multiple reflection effect in quasi-phase-matched media is dis cussed.
