Spatial modulational instability in one-dimensional lithium niobate slab waveguides

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We report an experimental study of the breakup through modulational instability of broad fundamental beams near the phase-matching condition for second-harmonic generation in lithium niobate slab waveguides. Two mechanisms for initiating modulational instability, waveguide imperfections and noise on the input beam, are identified.
