摘要

Abstract

Manipulation of the light phase lies at the heart of the investigation of light-matter interactions

especially for efficient nonlinear optical processes. Here

we originally propose the angular engineering strategy of the additional periodic phase (APP) for realization of tunable phase matching and experimentally demonstrate the widely tunable phase-matched second harmonic generation (SHG) which is expected for dozens of years. With an APP quartz crystal

the phase difference between the fundamental and frequency-doubled light is continuously angularly compensated under this strategy

which results the unprecedented and efficient frequency doubling at wavelengths almost covering the deep-UV spectral range from 221 to 332 nm. What's more

all the possible phase-matching types are originally realized simultaneously under the angular engineering phase-matching conditions. This work should not only provide a novel and practical nonlinear photonic device for tunable deep-UV radiation but also be helpful for further study of the light-matter interaction process.
