Nonlinear coupling coefficient

In the nonlinear coupling coefficient, we neglect all variable dependencies and take its value at the reference frequency and zero transverse wavenumbers ...

By extension one may say that the power laws (5-7) which determine the magnitude of the linear and nonlinear optical coefficients are consequences of this strong electron-lattice coupling. We now make the conjecture that the time response of these coefficients is severely affected by the dynamics of the electron-lattice coupling in conjugated chains when two or more resonant chemical structures can coexist this is the case for many of the organic chains of Figure 2. 

The use of a grating to facilitate the out-coupling has been demonstrated [52]. In that work, a (methyl-3 -(p-nitro-phenyl)carbazate, MNCZ) crystal was used as the substrate with a slab transparent waveguide made of photoresist deposited on top. The grating coupler was fabricated holographically and the SHG of a Nd YAG 1.06 pm laser demonstrated. This nonlinear crystal has a nonlinear d36 coefficient of 22.7 pm V-1 (3 time larger than d24 of KTP) and a cut-off wavelength of 455 nm. Reported conversion efficiencies were at that time limited by lack of sufficient crystal flatness. 

NEM of equation (2) for perturbations in the coupling coefficients of the nonlinear NEM strategy [7]. For the treatment of local thermal and hydraulic and fission product feedbacks, an additional second order accurate, nonlinear correction is applied in the evaluation of equation (3). This correction is obtained by direct substitution of the uncorrected power density response of equation (3) into analytical sensitivities for the change in cross-section with locd power [14]. 

We have seen how the molecular properties in nonlinear optics are defined by the expansion of the molecular polarization in orders of the external electric field, see Eq. (5) beyond the linear polarization this definition introduces the so-called nonlinear hyperpolarizabilities as coupling coefficients between the two quantities. The same equation also expresses an expansion in terms of the number of photons involved in simultaneous quantum-mechanical processes a, j3, y, and so on involve emission or absorption of two, three, four, etc. photons. The cross section for multiphoton absorption or emission, which takes place in nonlinear optical processes, is in typical cases relatively small and a high density of photons is required for these to occur. 

Figure 4.37 shows the relative contribution of each band to the ozone photolysis frequency as a function of altitude. It should be noted that the value of the ozone photodissociation coefficient depends critically on the absorption by ozone itself, introducing a nonlinear coupling as a function of altitude. The calculation of Jo3 must include the effects of molecular scattering and albedo (see Figure 4.38). 

By making use of the form of the Landau energy proposed by de Gennes [17], all coefficients in this expression have been evaluated from experimental data [4]. Using these data to calculate U, one obtains a value that is considerably smaller than the one determined from the linearized analysis outlined above. As has been noted, however, a consistent analysis should not only include terms quadratic in the strains and bilinear coupling terms of the order parameter and the strain, but rather also nonlinear effects as well as nonlinear coupling terms between strain and the nematic order parameter [4]. 

The high polarizabilities of the TiOg-octahedra results in anomalously high values of the dielectric permittivities (see Figure 8.2), as well as the electro-optical, nonlinear optical, piezoelectric and electromechanical coupling coefficients (Cross, 1993). This is at the very heart of the technical application of ferroelectric materials as ultrasonic oscillators, acoustic and optical frequency multipliers, dielectric amplifiers, acoustic and optical frequency modulators, switches, sensors, actuators, and many more. For detailed accounts on these applications, see Uchino (1994, 1996), Cross (1993), and Heywang et al. (2009). 

Yx is the coupling coefficient between the phenomena of activation and species transport. This coefficient is a priori different to 1, which implies nonlinear coupling. 

Equations 8-21 and 8-22 are nonlinearly coupled because the coefficients a, P, and Y Equations 8-14 to 8-16 depend on both x(, q) and y( T ). Their complementary geometric boundary conditions are derived in Chapter 9. 

Let us study the frequency Q of the target waves emitted around the pacemaker when the local frequency shift Au is varied. Our simulations reported in Figure 2 show that is a highly nonlinear function of Auj. The frequency shift is also a function of the coupling coefficient 7, the nonlinear dispersion (3 and the diameter of the perturbed region. It is seen from this relationship that Q, exhibits a maximum for a given value of and decreases... 

Coefficient Equations.—To determine the coefficients of the expansion, the distribution function, Eq. (1-72), is used in the Boltzmann equation the equation is then multiplied by any one of the polynomials, and integrated over velocity. This gives rise to an infinite set of coupled equations for the coefficients. Only a few of the coefficients appear on the left of each equation in general, however, all coefficients (and products) appear on the right side due to the nonlinearity of the collision integral. Methods of solving these equations approximately will be discussed in later sections.
