Abstract
This article presents a prototype nonlinear cavity modified by the presence of an intracavity photonic crystal, inducing a periodic modulation of the refractive index in the transverse plane. The role and the importance of photonic crystals in a type I degenerate optical parametric oscillator in order to control not only the spatial instability and the macroscopic transverse profile of the emitted light but also to engineer the distribution of the spatial quantum fluctuations.
