In this paper, a giant enhancement in both forward and backward propagation of second harmonic generation is proposed and demonstrated numerically by combining high-quality factor cavities of bound states in the continuum and an excellent nonlinear optical crystal of lithium niobate. The enhancement factor is defined as the ratio of second harmonic signal generated by the structure to the signal generated by the lithium niobate membrane alone. The proposed platform opens the way to a new generation of efficient integrated optical sources compatible with nano-photonic devices for classical and quantum applications.
In this paper, we proposed and numerically demonstrated a giant enhancement up to in both fo 10 8rward and backward propagation of the second harmonic generation by combining the high-quality factor cavities of the bound states in the continuum and the excellent nonlinear optical crystal of lithium niobate. The enhancement factor is defined as the ratio of the second harmonic signal generated by the structure (lithium niobate membrane with Si grating) divided by the signal generated by the lithium niobate membrane alone. Furthermore, a minimum interaction time of 350 ps is achieved despite the etching less lithium niobate membrane with a conversion efficiency of 4.77 x 10(-6). The origin of the enhancements is linked to the excitation of a Fano-like shape symmetry-protected mode that is revealed by finite-difference time-domain simulations. The proposed platform opens the way to a new generation of efficient integrated optical sources compatible with nano-photonic devices for classical and quantum applications.
