title: Conical second harmonic generation in KDP crystal assisted by optical elastic scattering.
abstract: We observed the generation of phase-matching conical second harmonic generation (SHG) inside KDP crystal under anomalous dispersion condition, which is attributed to complete phase-matching assisted by fundamental wave (FW) and scattering wave. The double-ring pattern of the conical SHG implies that elastic scattering can stimulate two different polarization states of scattering wave. Furthermore, SH ring of KDP displays inhomogeneous intensity around the ring, which has relevance to effective nonlinear coefficient, and it can be used to investigate crystal symmetry.
