SHG Phase-Matching Angle (BBO) calculator

Type-I ooe phase-matching angle in BBO for fundamental λ.

Category: Nonlinear Optics

Formula: sin²θ = (no(ω)⁻² - no(2ω)⁻²)/(ne(2ω)⁻² - no(2ω)⁻²)

Inputs

InputParameterUnitDefault
Fund. λlamnm1064

Result with the default inputs

  • θ_pm: 22.782 °
  • n_o(ω): 1.6545

Open it with your own values: put each input in the address as a parameter, for example /calculators/shg-phase-matching-angle-bbo?lam=1064. A unit other than the listed one goes in <parameter>_unit.
