Abstract
The second-order nonlinear frequency conversion in three-dimensional nonlinear photonic crystals is theoretically studied using coupled wave equations. A universal theoretical model is obtained, with a unified expression combining birefringence phase match, quasi-phase match, nonlinear Raman-Nath diffraction, nonlinear Čerenkov radiation and nonlinear Bragg diffraction. They are demonstrated in the numerical simulation. With the phase-matching conditions in lower dimensions extended to three dimensions, more various phenomena can be seen and corresponding mechanisms can be explained. This research enables the control of second-harmonic generation more efficiently and has potential applications in more complicated nonlinear photonic crystals.
