Exact analytic expressions for electromagnetic propagation and optical nonlinear generation in finite one-dimensional periodic multilayers

Abstract

Translation Matrix Formalism has been used to find an exact analytic solution for linear light propagation in a finite one-dimensional (1D) periodic stratified structure. This modal approach allows to derive a closed formula for the electric field in every point of the structure, by simply imposing a convenient form for the boundary conditions. We show how to apply this result to Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) in the undepleted pump regime.
