Title: NIST Releases Software for Noncollinear Phase Matching in Crystals
NIST has developed software that calculates phase matching in both collinear and noncollinear cases for a wide range of nonlinear crystals and configurations. The software, available as a self-installing executable or FORTRAN source code, allows researchers to study the unique characteristics of noncollinear phase matching in both uniaxial and biaxial crystals.
The software enables exploration of various nonlinear crystals and configurations, leading to potential useful applications. NIST notes that mentioning specific trade names and products is for adequate specification, but does not imply endorsement of any particular products.
