摘要
Using phase-matched third-harmonic generation we determine the effective nonlinear susceptibilities in Hg2Cl2 (Calomel) to \chi(eff,I)((3))\ = 4.5 x 10(-22) m(2)V(-2) and \chi(eff,II)((3))\ = 9.7 x 10(-22)m(2)V(-2) for type I and type II phase matching, respectively. The type III phase matching uses the same tensor components as type I and is deduced to be \chi(eff,III)((3))\ congruent to 1.5 x 10(-22)m(2)V(-2). The effective third-order susceptibilities of Hg2Cl2 are two orders of magnitude higher than those of CaCO3 and the tensor components chi(11) - 3chi(18) exceed the components of ADP by a factor of 5. These measurements demonstrate that Calomel might be a promising material to be used for nonlinear optical devices. (C) 2002 Optical Society of America.
