NEAR INFRARED PICOSECOND PULSED BACKWARD SECOND-HARMONIC-GENERATION IN PERIODICALLY-POLED LITHIUM NIOBATE
2011
We report on backward second-harmonic-generation in bulk periodically-poled congruent lithium niobate with a 3.2μm period. A picosecond pulsed laser allowed us exciting a resonance at 1722nm. The resonances were also resolved by temperature tuning.
Spatial Solitons in Quadratic 2D Nonlinear Photonic Crystals
2007
We report on the first investigations into parametric solitary-wave formation in 2D nonlinear photonic crystals and present experimental results obtained in an hexagonally poled LiNbO3 waveguide designed for twin-beam second harmonic generation at telecom wavelengths.
Continuous-Wave Backward Frequency Doubling in Periodically Poled Lithium Niobate

All-Optical frequency Shifter in a Periodically Poled Lithium Tantalate Waveguide
2011
A frequency shifting device is fabricated and tested in a congruent Lithium Tantalate waveguide. Periodic poling for quasi-phase-matching and channels for operation in the near-infrared C-band were obtained, demonstrating a two-stage parametric conversion.
Continuous-Wave Backward Frequency Doubling in Periodically Poled Lithium Niobate
2010
We report on backward second-harmonic- generation in periodically poled lithium niobate with a 3.2 micron QPM period. A tunable continuous-wave Ti:Sapphire laser allowed us exciting two resonant orders. Experimental data compared well with standard theory.
GENERAZIONE DI SECONDA ARMONICA RETRO-PROPAGANTE IN NIOBATO DI LITIO CON POLING PERIODICO
2010
We report on backward second-harmonic-generation in bulk periodically poled congruent lithium niobate with a 3.2 micron period. A tunable continuous-wave Ti:Sapphire laser allowed us exciting two resonant quasi-phase-matched orders. Resonances were also resolved by temperature tuning.
Photoelectric fields in doped lithium niobate crystals
2019
Photoinduced light scattering (PILS) in nominally pure stoichiometric and congruent lithium niobate single crystals (LiNbO3), and ones doped with B³⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Mg²⁺, Gd³⁺, Y³⁺, Er³⁺ cations was studied. All crystals have a relatively low effect of photorefraction and are promising materials for frequency conversion, electro-optical modulators and shutters. It was found that the photovoltaic and diffusion fields for some crystals have a maximum at a wavelength of 514.5 nm. All the crystals studied are characterized by a maximum of the integral intensity of the speckle structure of the PILS at a wavelength of 514.5 nm.

Spatial Simultons in 2D Photonic Crystals of Nonlinear Origin
2007
We observed for the very first time quadratic spatial solitons (simultons) in a two dimensional photonic lattice defined by periodic sign inversion of its susceptibilty. This is the first demonstration of quadratic self-confinement in a 2D purely nonlinear photonic crystal.
