摘要
Under extended phase-matching conditions, the first frequency derivative of the wave-vector mismatch is zero and the phase-matching bandwidth is greatly increased. We present extensive three-wave mixing measurements of the wave-vector mismatch and obtain improved Sellmeier equations for KTiOPO4. We observed a type-II extended phase-matching bandwidth of 100 nm for second-harmonic generation in periodically poled KTiOPO4, centered at the fundamental wavelength of 1584 nm. Applications in quantum entanglement and frequency metrology are discussed. (C) 2004 American Institute of Physics.
