Abstract

An investigation on holey fibers (HF) for efficient broadband second harmonic generation (SHG) was presented. The fiber posses wavelength-scale air holes in the cladding that lead to unique range of optical properties and have an ideal geometry for efficient parametric processes due to their tailorable modal properties. The theoretical investigations demonstrated that HFs can be four order of magnitude more efficient than conventional poled fibers for SHG.
