Abstract
A simple technique for characterising nonlinear gratings for quasi-phase-ma tched structures is presented. The method is based on an analysis of the sp ectral characteristics of the second-harmonic beam generated in a pulsed re gime. The potential of the technique is experimentally demonstrated using p eriodically poled D-shaped silica fibres, a promising second order nonlinea r material.
