High second-order nonlinearities induced in lead silicate glass by electron-beam irradiation

A new technique for inducing a large permanent second-order susceptibility in lead silicate glass is reported. The procedure involves implanting electrons by irradiating the glass with an electron beam. Second-order nonlinearities chi((2)) as high as 0.7 pm/V are obtained.
