Abstract

Random quasi-phase-matched frequency doubling of fs pulses to the deep UV was obtained in 1D nonlinear photonic crystal (NPC) of strontium tetraborate. Tuning range of generated radiation is from 187.5 to 215 nm. The spectrum of generated radiation consists from series of peaks with the width of order of 1 Å. These peaks are the manifestation of the NPC band structure. Using fs oscillator as the fundamental radiation source, maximum average power of generated radiation is of order 1 μW, the enhancement factor with respect to monodomain sample being of order of several hundred. The red rotational shift of NPC band structure is experimentally demonstrated.
