摘要:
The invention relates to a nonlinear optical device comprising a film structure (2) coated on a substrate (1) without interposition of adhesive. According to the invention the device is characterised in that the film structure comprises a modulated intercalation structure consisting of a layer of semi-conductor material and a layer of organic material, the layers having different energy gaps and the modulated structure being a super lattice structure. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a nonlinear optical device comprising dissolving an organic material in a solvent, and spin coating the solution onto a substrate and thereby forming an organic material film with one of its crystal axes oriented in the direction normal to the substrate, the film having a modulated structure of the two types of layers alternately intercalated and differing in energy gap in the direction.

The present invention relates to a light beam deflector comprising a semi-conductor light beam deflecting device (4) adapted to receive an incident beam of light (5). According to the invention the semi-conductor device comprises a planar waveguide type thin film grating deflector (4) formed in a superlattice structure and including electrodes, such that if a variable voltage is applied to the electrodes the angle through which an incident beam of light can be deflected is varied. The invention also relates to a light beam deflecting device comprising a light beam deflector (4) as above and a laser source (1, 1).

This invention is intended to provide a nonlinear optical device with sufficiently high nonlinearity for efficient wavelength conversion or optical modulation. The nonlinear optical device according to this invention comprises a substrate and material layers disposed thereupon, at least a portion of said material layers being alternate insulator layers and semiconductor layers comprising a multi-quantum-well structure, the potential for electrons in said semiconductor layers being asymmetric in the z-direction normal to said substrate. A quantum well structure that uses an insulator layer as the barrier layer and a semiconductor layer as the well layer satisfies the requirements of a well depth of 3 eV or more, and of a difference between the minimum energy level (e₁) of the electrons in the conduction band and the maximum energy level (h₁) of the electrons in the valence band of 3 eV or more, whereby the device is transparent for visible light, including second harmonic generated blue light.
