We have observed a dramatic enhancement of third-harmonic generation in 3D polystyrene-air photonic crystals pumped by a near infrared laser beam. As the pump wavelength is tuned, the peak of the enhancement occurs when the third-harmonic wavelength approaches the short-wavelength edge of the band gap. We show that the origin of the enhancement is phase matching provided by the periodic structure of the photonic crystals.
我们观察到,在近红外激光束泵浦的三维聚苯乙烯-空气光子晶体中,三次谐波产生有显著增强。随着泵浦波长的调谐,当三次谐波波长接近带隙的短波长边缘时,增强峰值出现。我们表明,这种增强的起源是光子晶体的周期性结构所提供的相位匹配。
