Abstract

We deal with second-harmonic generation in χ(2) nonlinear-optical resonators such as prism or grating couplers. The theoretical study is performed within the framework of a recently developed coupled-mode analysis leading to a set of equations governing the amplitudes of pump and second-harmonic frequency fields. We predict analytically that second-harmonic generation in prism or grating couplers may lead to optical bistability. We believe this to be the first demonstration of such an effect in χ(2) optical resonators.
