Unfortunately, Si 3 N 4 does not exhibit second order nonlinear optical properties due to its amorphous nature. Yet, recently several groups showed a build-up in time of a second harmonic (SH) when a pulsed high power pump is coupled in an Si3N waveguide [1-3]. This phenomenon, referred to as all-optical poling, is explained by the growth of an harmonic space-charge modulated χ (2) grating which quasi-phase matches the pump and its SH [4].text::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
