Abstract

Nanophotonic devices show interesting features for nonlinear response enhancement but numerical tools are mandatory to fully determine their behaviour. To address this need, we present a numerical modal method dedicated to nonlinear optics calculations under the undepleted pump approximation. It is brie y explained in the frame of Second Harmonic Generation for both plane waves and focused beams. The nonlinear behaviour of selected nanostructures is then investigated to show comparison with existing analytical results and study the convergence of the code.
