Abstract

The approximation of strong interaction of waves is developed to analyze the generation of the second harmonic under the conditions of self-action. Based on this method, an approximate expression is obtained for the generation efficiency of the second harmonic with allowance for the effect of higher nonlinearities, depletion of pumping radiation, and linear phase detuning. The effect of phase detuning and change in the spatial distribution of the amplitude of the fundamental radiation on the efficiency of second-harmonic generation has been analyzed. Good agreement of the results of the developed approximate method with experimental data and numerical calculations is shown. The optimum conditions of the second-harmonic generation in a wide range of the laser system radiation intensities are determined.
