Tunable photo-induced second-harmonic generation in a mode-engineered silicon nitride microresonator

Camille Sophie Brès, Jianqi Hu, Anton Stroganov, Boris Zabelich, Edgars Nitiss

All-optical poling enables reconfigurable and efficient quasi-phase-matching for second-order parametric frequency conversion in silicon nitride integrated photonics. Here, we report broadly tunable milliwatt-level second-harmonic generation in a small fre ...

Les Cahiers de l'Ibois 3 / Ibois Notebook 3

Petras Vestartas, Sandra Vuilleumier

Before the twentieth century and concrete modernity, it was stone that embodied the “well built”. Could sustainable wood one day replace concrete as the archetypal material? Will it find a place on the scale of values that gives archi- tecture its referenc ...
