Abstract :
Intermodally phase matched up- and down-conversion processes based on the third order nonlinearity can be used to efficiently generate UV and mid-IR wavelength regions in solid core silica optical fibers and optical fiber tapers. We theoretically study the waveguide parameters and practical considerations required for optimum conversion.
