Abstract
We study parametric frequency conversion in two-dimensional nonlinear photonic crystal with short-range ordered ferroelectric domains. We demonstrate that the short-range order enables broadband third-harmonic generation via cascading of two second-order quasi-phase matched nonlinear processes. We obtain conversion efficiencies that are much higher than those achieved from a randomized medium, owing to the unique distribution of reciprocal lattice vectors in the short-range ordered structure.
