Nonlinear harmonic generation of terahertz waves in a topological valley polaritonic microcavity
CHINESE OPTICS LETTERS(2023)
摘要
Compact terahertz (THz) devices, especially for nonlinear THz components, have received more and more attention due to their potential applications in THz nonlinearity-based sensing, communications, and computing devices. However, effective means to enhance, control, and confine the nonlinear harmonics of THz waves remain a great challenge for micro-scale THz nonlinear devices. In this work, we have established a technique for nonlinear harmonic generation of THz waves based on phonon polariton-enhanced giant THz nonlinearity in a 2D-topologically protected valley photonic microcavity. Effective THz harmonic generation has been observed in both noncentrosymmetric and centrosymmetric nonlinear materials. These results can provide a valuable reference for the generation and control of THz high-harmonics, thus developing new nonlinear devices in the THz regime.
