We synthesized three kinds of chromophores incorporating aromatic quinoline unit as a $\pi-conjugated$ bridge in order to prepare more thermally stable nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores than general stilbene unit. The NLO poly(methylmethacrylate) copolymer, polyimides, and polyester were successfully synthesized by these corresponding quinoline-based monomers. Their physical and optical properties were investigated by thermogravimetry, gel permeation chromatography, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, second harmonic generation (SHG) and electro-optic (EO) measurement. All the polymers exhibited better thermal stability,however their NLO activity was a little lower than that of general stilbene-based NLO polymers. Among three kinds of polymers, the PMMA copolymer with quinoline chromophores had the largest SHG coefficient d33 value of 27 pm/V (at 1.064 $\mu\textrm{m})$ and EO coefficient r33 value of 6.8 pm/V (at 1.3 $\mu\textrm{m}$).

L-Arginine semi-oxalate (LASO) single crystal has been grown by solution growth technique at room temperature. The crystal structure and lattice parameters were determined for the grown crystal by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Photoluminescence studies confirm the violet fluorescence emission peak at 395 nm. Optical constants like band gap, refractive index, reflectance, extinction coefficient and electric susceptibility were determined from UV-VIS-NIR spectrum. The dielectric constant, dielectric loss and ac conductivity of the compound were calculated at different temperatures and frequencies to analyze the electrical properties. The solid state parameters such as plasma energy, Penn gap, Fermi energy and polarizability were calculated to analyze second harmonic generation (SHG). Nonlinear optical property was discussed to confirm the SHG efficiency of the grown crystal.

We have determined the orientational distribution functions (OBFs) at both air and substrate isotropic interfaces of a chiral chitosan bio-polymer film by the measurements of surface second-harmonic generation (SHG). It was shown that the simultaneous SHG analysis of both interfaces, based on the macroscopic and microscopic relations, provides all the informations on the nonlinear optical (NLO) activity.

We numerically investigate the characteristic of single Nd:YAG rod laser with the convex-plane resonator configuration in order to get the best condition for high efficient intra-cavity second harmonic generation(SHG). The beam quality is analyzed with ABCD matrixes including the thermal lensing characteristic of Nd:YAG rod. The analysis is focused on stability, M2, beam waist and mode-volume of laser beam inside the resonator. The best conditions for SHG is obtained when a laser rod is set near the curved laser mirror.

In this paper, we have obtained information about the orientational distribution (polar and azimuthal) of the surface molecules on backward rubbed polyimide. Using the second-harmonic genration tecnique, the nonlinear susceptibility tensor components were induced. And, the orientational distribution function was estimated without a prior assumptions, using the maximum entropy method. The polar angle of surface molecules befor rubbing is isotropic. The polar angle of surface molecules after rubbing is anisotropic along the rubbing direction. The polar angle of surface molecules after several rubbing is determined by the last rubbing direction.

광굴절률 현상은 optical signal processing과 홀로그램 기억소자로 널리 응용 될 수 있기 때문에 지금까지 광범위하게 연구되어져 왔다. 광굴절률 현상에서 중요한 변수는 빛이 있는 동안 drift, diffusion 과 photovoltaic current와 같은 전하 운반 메카니즘을 통해서 local charge의 재분포에 따른 공간전하장(Space-charge field, $E_{sc}$ )이다. 지금까지 single beam에 의한 공간전하장을 측정하는 방법으로 birefringenc $e^{1.2}$ 와 interference metho $d^{3}$을 이용하여 굴절률 변화를 측정함으로써 얻을 수 있었다. 그러나 이런 방법들은 공간전하장의 변화를 측정하기위해서 전기광학계수를 측정하여 얻는 간접적인 방법이고 또한 실험방법도 다소 복잡하다. 따라서 본 투고에서는 이미 발표된 광굴절률 현상시 제 2 고조파 세기(SHG)의 변화로부터 공간전하장을 간단하게 측정하는 방법을 이용하여 congruent, MgO가 4mole%, F $e_2$O가 0.1mole% 첨가된 LiNb $O_3$ 단결정의 공간전하장에 대해서 연구를 하였다. 이 방법은 전기광학물질인 LiNb $O_3$에서 SHG 위상정합조건이 dc 전기장에 의존하는 성질을 이용한 것이다. 그리고 온도가 일정할 경우 전기장의 변화에 따라 SHG의 크기가 변함을 이용하였다.

The characteristics of a ferroelectric-domain inverted grating fabricated by applying a high-voltage pulse at room temperature in Ti-diffused channel waveguides in z-cut $LiNbO_3$ (Ti:PPLN) were examined for channel waveguide quasi phase-matched secondharmonic generation devices. The fabrication conditions of uniform periodic domain-inversion were examined. Ti:PPLN with period ${\Lambda}=16.6{\mu}m$ for SHG were fabricated and the performances were measured. A normalized SHG efficiency as high as 473 (%/W) was obtained with 49 mm interaction length.

The optimum conditions of second harmonic generation (SHG) can be successfully achieved experimentally using single pass and double pass methods of a pumping beam. The beam has a power of several Watts radiated by a DOFA (Diode Laser Oscillator & Fiber Amplifier) system, which is a high power CW wavelength tunable infrared laser system, in a PPLN (Periodically Poled MgO doped Lithium Niobate) nonlinear crystal. In the case of a single pass method, the parameters are the wavelength of 535 nm for SHG and the output power of 245 mW generated from the pumping input beam with wavelength of 1070 nm and the power of 2.45 W at phase matching temperature of $108.9^{\circ}C$. The conversion efficiency of SHG was 10%. In order to enhance the output of SHG, the double pass method of the SHG system of a PPLN using a concave mirror for the retroreflection and a pair of wedged flat windows for phase compensation was also presented. In this double pass system, we obtained the SHG output beam with the wavelength of 535 nm and the maximum power of 383 mW at optimum phase matching temperature of $108.5^{\circ}C$ by using an incident pumping beam with wavelength of 1070 nm and the power of 2.45 W. The maximum conversion efficiency is 15.6%, which is more than that of the single pass method.

Silica glass is a core material for optical fiber in optical telecommunications, but its centrosymmetry eliminates the second order nonlinearity. But it is experimentally well known that the space charge polarization induces the Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) when a strong DC voltage is applied to silica glass for a long period time with metal blocking electrodes. In this research, a theoretical calculation of the nonlinear optical property caused by the space charge polarization is performed, and a model of a numerical analysis to predict the small change in nonlinear optical property as functions of time and space is provided.
