Interference in reflected second-harmonic generation from thin nonlinear films

Abstract

Interference In reflection from thin multilayered dielectric films is an important and well-understood phenomenon in linear optics. However, the analogous problem in nonlinear optics is not well studied. We have investigated optical interference in the second-harmonic generation (SHG) as a result of reflection from two adjoined nonlinear optical slabs. Besides its intrinsic interest as a new phenomenon, the interference provides a methodology for measuring the second- order susceptibility of overlayer materials that can be grown only in very thin layers above other high-quality solids.
