Abstract

Summary form only given. We report on the fabrication of a specially designed porous silicon microcavity (MC) with the cavity mode located inside the photonic band gap, and on the experimental observation of the enhancement of the second-harmonic (SH) response of such microstructures in the vicinity of the MC mode.
