Dynamics of femtosecond laser pulses in air and in vacuum
We applied the method of the amplitude envelopes to investigate fsec optical pulses in air and in vacuum and and obtain new linear amplitude equations governing their propagation. The obtained amplitu...

We consider the femtosecond phase-matched noncollinear second-harmonic generation (SHG) in Strontium Barium Niobate (SBN) crystals with random ferroelectnc domains. We study both planar and radial second-harmonic (SH) radiation for the average input power Pf up to 600 mW. We show that the effect of thermal self-focusing of the fundamental wave occurring at Pf > 250 mW results in novel effects including the spatial localization of SHG, a change of the SH efficiency slope, and significant spectral broadening of both fundamental and SH beams
