Abstract :
We present results of theoretical and experimental study of the consecutive third harmonic generation in a periodically poled bulk LiNbO/sub 3/:Y crystal. It is shown theoretically that under certain conditions for nonlinear coefficients the energy of wave with frequency /spl omega/ in the consecutive considered interaction can be almost completely converted to the energy of wave with frequency 3/spl omega/.
