Abstract

This chapter is devoted to nonlinear optical phenomenon in periodic media, mainly the case in which radiation wavelength is close to the spatial period of the nonlinear medium. Under this condition, effects can appear which are not observed in the usual crystals where the spatial period is much smaller than optical wavelength so that periodicity does not affect nonlinear optical phenomena (Akhmanov and Khokhlov in Problems of Nonlinear Optics. VINITI, Moscow, 1964 [1], Bloembergen in Nonlinear Optics. W.A. Benjamin Inc., New York, 1965 [2]).
