Title

All-optical switching using second-order nonlinearities in KTP

Abstract

The effect of a input second-harmonic seed wave on the second-harmonic generation process is described. Experimentally, we demonstrate a 4.6-to-l modulation depth imposed on the fluence of an intense 1.06 μm picosecond pulse by varying the relative phase of a weak second-harmonic control pulse under near phase-matched conditions. This transistor-like action is based on quadratic nonlinearities in KTP.
