Abstract

The aim of this lecture is to show that leaky modes provide a convenient mean for the study of nonlinear optical interactions in “open” resonators such as Fabry-Perot’s, multilayer structures, prism or grating couplers, etc.

On leave from Institute of Solid State Physics, 72 Tzarigradsko Chaussee, 1784 Sofia, Bulgaria.
