ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a frequency doubler having a quantum well semiconductor structure and a second-order non-linear susceptibility grating that can be used to amplify notably the frequency doubling. The grating can be recorded optically or electrically within the semiconductor structure and has a pitch in the plane of the structure. Such a frequency doubler finds particular application to optical recording or reading systems.
