Nonlinear optics and crystalline whispering gallery mode cavities.
We demonstrate parametric frequency doubling in a whispering gallery cavity made of periodically poled lithium niobate. This demonstration is an example of utility of such crystalline optical whispering gallery resonators with very high Q factors, which we have fabricated.
