Thermal poling of silica in air and under vacuum: the influence of charge transport on second harmonic generation
A comparison between thermal poling of silica in air and in vacuum is reported. It is shown that the second-order susceptibility and thickness of the nonlinear layer as well as their time evolution are highly dependent on the surrounding poling atmosphere. In the vacuum case a charge distribution (u...
