We theoretically investigate the second harmonic generation and photon drag effect induced by an incident plane wave to a doped graphene placed on a two-dimensional diffraction grating. The relevant nonlinear conductivity of the graphene is obtained by a semi-classical treatment with a phenomenological relaxation. The grating acts not only as a plasmon coupler but also as a dispersion modulator of the graphene plasmon. As a result, the second harmonic generation is strongly enhanced by exciting the graphene plasmon polariton of the first- and/or second-harmonic frequencies. The photon drag effect is also strongly enhanced by the excitation of the plasmon at the first-harmonic frequency. The direct current induced by the photon drag effect flows both forward and backward directions to the incident light, depending on the modulated plasmon mode concerned.

Silica-based optical fibers are a workhorse of nonlinear optics. They have been used to demonstrate nonlinear phenomena such as solitons and self-phase modulation. Since the introduction of the photonic crystal fiber, they have found many exciting ap
plications, such as supercontinuum white light sources and third-harmonic generation, among others. They stand out by their low loss, large interaction length, and the ability to engineer its dispersive properties, which compensate for the small chi(3) nonlinear coefficient. However, they have one fundamental limitation: due to the amorphous nature of silica, they do not exhibit second-order nonlinearity, except for minor contributions from surfaces. Here, we demonstrate significant second-harmonic generation in functionalized optical fibers with a monolayer of highly nonlinear MoS2 deposited on the fiber guiding core. The demonstration is carried out in a 3.5 mm short piece of exposed core fiber, which was functionalized in a scalable process CVD-based process, without a manual transfer step. This approach is scalable and can be generalized to other transition metal dichalcogenides and other waveguide systems. We achieve an enhancement of more than 1000x over a reference sample of equal length. Our simple proof-of-principle demonstration does not rely on either phase matching to fundamental modes, or ordered growth of monolayer crystals, suggesting that pathways for further improvement are within reach. Our results do not just demonstrate a new path towards efficient in-fiber SHG-sources, instead, they establish a platform with a new route to chi(2)-based nonlinear fiber optics, optoelectronics, and photonics platforms, integrated optical architectures, and active fiber networks.
We study second harmonic generation in nonlinear, GaAs gratings. We find large enhancement of conversion efficiency when the pump field excites the guided mode resonances of the grating. Under these circumstances the spectrum near the pump wavelength
displays sharp resonances characterized by dramatic enhancements of local fields and favorable conditions for second harmonic generation, even in regimes of strong linear absorption at the harmonic wavelength. In particular, in a GaAs grating pumped at 1064nm, we predict second harmonic conversion efficiencies approximately five orders of magnitude larger than conversion rates achievable in either bulk or etalon structures of the same material.
We theoretically investigate second harmonic generation that originates from the nonlinear, magnetic Lorentz force term from single and multiple apertures carved on thick, opaque metal substrates. The linear transmission properties of apertures on me
tal substrates have been previously studied in the context of the extraordinary transmission of light. The transmission process is driven by a number of physical mechanisms, whose characteristics and relative importance depend on the thickness of the metallic substrate, slit size, and slit separation. In this work we show that a combination of cavity effects and surface plasmon generation gives rise to enhanced second harmonic generation in the regime of extraordinary transmittance of the pump field. We have studied both forward and backward second harmonic generation conversion efficiencies as functions of the geometrical parameters, and how they relate to pump transmission efficiency. The resonance phenomenon is evident in the generated second harmonic signal, as conversion efficiency depends on the duration of incident pump pulse, and hence its bandwidth. Our results show that the excitation of tightly confined modes as well as the combination of enhanced transmission and nonlinear processes can lead to several potential new applications such as photo-lithography, scanning microscopy, and high-density optical data storage devices.
We experimentally demonstrate graphene-plasmon polariton excitation in a continuous graphene monolayer resting on a two-dimensional subwavelength silicon grating. The subwavelength silicon grating is fabricated by a nanosphere lithography technique w
ith a self-assembled nanosphere array as a template. Measured transmission spectra illustrate the excitation of graphene-plasmon polaritons, which is further supported by numerical simulations and theoretical prediction of plasmonband diagrams. Our grating-assisted coupling to graphene-plasmon polaritons forms an important platform for graphene-based opto-electronics applications.
A dramatic spectral modulation of third-order harmonic (TH) emission generated in a near in- frared femtosecond (fs) pulse filamentation, assisted by a two-dimensional plasma grating formed by two pump femtosecond pulses, is experimentally demonstrat
ed when their spatiotemporal overlap is achieved. It is mainly attributed to strong cross-phase modulation induced by the fundamental wave of the probe pulse and two pump ones. The delay dynamic of TH spectra indicates the influence of two retarded nonlinear responses on the TH generation. The dependences of TH generation on the energies of probe and pump pulses, relative field polarization angle are also studied.
