Notes:
Electron-beam (EB) irradiation on rf-sputtered silicate glass thin films can produce second-order nonlinearity. EB-poled germanosilicate glass film shows a maximum nonlinear optical (NLO) coefficient of d33=0.33 pm/V. It is found that the nonlinearity is homogeneous throughout the film layer and depends on both the EB current and dose. Moreover, a NLO grating, i.e., χ(2) grating, is realized using a periodic EB writing technique. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
