Hz. Hu et al., THEORETICAL-ANALYSIS OF 2ND-HARMONIC GENERATION IN THE FORM OF CHERENKOV RADIATION FROM A RECTANGULAR OPTICAL WAVE-GUIDE, Optics communications, 149(1-3), 1998, pp. 101-107
A novel model of electric dipole radiation for second harmonic generat
ion is developed. Based on this model, a useful formula is derived, wh
ich can predict the conversion efficiency, the dependence of the SH po
wer on the depth of the guide, and the radiation pattern of the Cheren
kov configuration of SHG satisfactorily. The results of numerical calc
ulations are consistent with those given by directly solving the wave
equations. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
