摘要
We performed the direct measurement of second harmonic generation and sum frequency generation phase-matching directions in the organic N-benzyl-2-methyl-4-nitroaniline crystal over its visible and near-infrared transparency range. The fit of these data allowed us to refine the Sellmeier equations of the three principal refractive indices in this range. With these equations, we improved the calculated tuning curves of terahertz emission from a phase-matched difference frequency process. We also determined the absolute magnitude of the d(24) nonlinear coefficient. (C) 2018 Optical Society of America
