Variational and WKB Descriptions of Laterally Localized Eigenmodes in Non-Collinear Optical Parametric Amplifiers

Journal Article · · 2007 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics (CLEO)

With a finite lateral width pump, non-collinear interactions result in metastable or stable laterally localized bound states. The physical processes involved are group velocity walk-off, diffraction, chirped QPM gratings and different pump shapes.
