High-efficiency broadband second harmonic generation in single hexagonal GaAs nanowire
Abstract In this paper, we investigate second harmonic generation in a single hexagonal GaAs nanowire. An excellent frequency converter based on this nanowire excited using a femtosecond laser is demonstrated to operate over a range from 730 nm to 1960 nm, which is wider than previously reported ran...
