Abstract :
We present a novel method for designing nonlinear photonic quasi-periodic structures for quasi-phase-matched optical frequency conversion processes. Our method is based on a quantized inverse Fourier transform which allows us to choose any arbitrary set of required processes in 1D or 2D and tailor for them a modulation design for phase-matching.
