摘要: Second-harmonic microscopy has been applied to characterize the second-order nonlinear layer in fused silica plates thermally poled at 280 °C and 3.5 kV for different time intervals. The is found only under anode surface be ∼5μm deep a poling of 30 min. Progression this into bulk glass with also characterized.
