Abstract:

We present numerical results that describe how to engineer the radiation pattern of the second harmonic (SH) signal generated by AlGaAs on aluminum oxide all-dielectric nanoantennas. The SH beam divergence is minimized by coherent forward and backward scattering of the radiation emitted at grazing angles from the optical antenna toward a concentric grating grown on the aluminum oxide substrate, whereas the symmetry of the SH mode is converted by introducing a suitablydesigned phase shift. The parameters of the structure are optimized through extensive numerical simulations and design guidelines for fabrication are provided.
