摘要：

Diffraction losses in one-dimensional photonic crystal (PC) waveguides are the primary limitation on second-harmonic (SH) conversion efficiency. By using a finite difference time domain (FDTD) code taking into account second-order nonlinear polarization, we investigated these losses numerically, particularly at the SH wavelength. We propose an efficient SH conversion scheme in AlxGa1-xAs/air-etched waveguides. An analytical model is used to extrapolate the conversion efficiency to a number of periods for which time consumption makes the FDTD codes unsuitable.
