Abstract

Wave coupling theory of quadratic electro-optic effect is developed by considering the third-order nonlinearity as a perturbation in lossless nonmagnetic centrosymmetric medium. A general solution of the resultant equations is given to describe the quadratic electro-optic effect for the electromagnetic wave propagating along an arbitrary direction with applied external electric field. The effect of the polarization state on electro-optic coupling is studied in paraelectric phase KLTN crystals. A novel application of wave coupling theory of quadratic effect is described, namely polarization rotator, which can rotate the polarization of the electromagnetic wave with an arbitrary angle.
