Abstract

The surface plasmon enhanced ultra-low threshold second harmonic generation is observed, designed and simulated in whispering gallery resonator made of MgO doped periodically poled LiNbO3. Here the electric field associated with incident optical radiation of picowatt level is amplified to milliwatt level through surface plasmon resonance in Kretschmann geometry which is formed by a BK7 prism plane, 29nm thin gold layer and 20nm thin GaAs layer. This enhanced electric field then coupled to a whispering gallery resonator, which facilitated the generation of second harmonic for an incident laser radiation of picowatt level. In this proposed configuration with an incident optical power of 94.6pW, generated second harmonic through whispering gallery resonator is found to be 14.6mW.
