Abstract

Abstract The Second Harmonic wave generated with Evanescent Wave (SHEW) technique is first applied to measure the value of the non-linear coefficient, d 33 , of lithium niobate (LN). The result is in good agreement with the known value from the literature. We subsequently investigate the second-order optical properties of the near surface of He + -implanted LN and KTiOPO 4 (KTP) crystals. Our results show a rather strong degradation of the non-linearity (≈50%) in both crystals.
