Abstract

We have obtained the significant enhancement (up to 70 %) of the second harmonic generation efficiency in the novel composite material based on KDP single crystalline matrix with incorporated anatase nanoparticles under the mode-locked YAG:Nd laser pulsed excitation. The effect is explained by the internal self-focusing at moderate pump peak intensity due to giant cubic nonlinear optical response of anatase nanoparticles. The possibility to control quadratic and cubic nonlinear optical responses with selection of the nanoparticles concentration and growth sector of the crystal was shown. The nonlinear optical refractive index variation is a very sensitive tool to perform the diagnostics of the KDP and KDP:TiO2 single crystals within CW and pulsed picosecond range laser radiation due to the resonant excitation of the transient intrinsic defect states of the crystal matrix and surface states at the anatase nanoparticles interface.
