SOLUTIONS MANUAL Fundamentals of Nonlinear Optics Second Edition Peter E. Powers and Joseph W. Haus Chapter 1 Problem Solutions 1.1. This problem is an opportunity to enrich your knowledge and appreciation about historical milestones in nonlinear optics. Searching the list of Nobel prizes in physics and chemistry choose one that use lasers and/or nonlinear optics. Read the laureate’s biography and listen or read the lecture on the Nobel website and write a brief description of the laureate and a summary of the technical discovery credited by the Nobel committee. The problem allows students to explore the motivation of a distinguished scientist and learn from that person by reading their description of the discovery. This is a list of laureates with the prize directly identif ied with an optical phenomenon.

Use classical concepts to calculate the electric field strength due to the proton’s Coulomb field at the Bohr radius, the most probable value of the electron’s orbital radius in the ground state. Use the electric field strength to estimate the second - and third-order nonlinear coefficients based on a unit analysis. Compare the results with second -order coefficients for inorganic compounds found in Appendix B and with third -order coefficients for several inorganic compounds you find in the literature. The calculation is simply to infer an electric field produced by a point charge e at a distance a from the center. The elementary charge and Bohr’s radius are used for the two parameters. 𝑒=1.6×10−19 𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑙 . and 𝑎=52.9 𝑝𝑚. (𝜀0=8.85×10−12 𝐹𝑎𝑟𝑎𝑑 /𝑚). The result is 𝐸=𝑒
4𝜋𝜀0𝑎2=5.1×1011𝑉/𝑚 . Second-order nonlinearity estimation 𝜒(2)∝1
𝐸=1.19𝑝𝑚/𝑉 ; And the third -order nonlinearity estimate is 𝜒(3)∝1

. From the Appendix here are two examples : KTP: 𝜒31(2)=2𝑑31=3.9 𝑝𝑚/𝑉; 𝜒32(2)=2𝑑32=7.8 𝑝𝑚/𝑉; 𝜒33(2)=2𝑑32=30.6 𝑝𝑚/𝑉. BBO: 𝜒22(2)=2𝑑22=−4.4 𝑝𝑚/𝑉; 𝜒31(2)=2𝑑31=0.16 𝑝𝑚/𝑉. Most cases in the appendix are within one order of magnitude of the estimate. The magnitude is also affected by atomic and molecular resonances that can further skew the estimate. A couple of values are as follows: fused silica: 𝜒𝑥𝑥𝑥𝑥(3)=258 [𝑝𝑚

; carbon disulfide (liquid) cw: 𝜒𝑥𝑥𝑥𝑥(3)=
19,200 [𝑝𝑚

, chalcogenide glass As 2S3: 𝜒𝑥𝑥𝑥𝑥(3)=120 ,000 [𝑝𝑚
𝑉]2
. The values are generally several orders of magnitude larger than predicted by the atomic field estimate alone. Clearly other mechanisms are responsible for third -order nonlinearities.
