Abstract

The influence of the non-linear part of the wave-vector mismatch Δk NL on the sum frequency generation in a hollow core waveguide is analysed. According to the value and sign of the respective non-linear susceptibilities, considerable deviation in the signalP s on the pump powersP 1, andP 2 can be induced, compared to the case when the linear part Δk L is considered only. Non-linear schemes are proposed for X-ray ultra violet XUV-generation near 60 nm.
