Quasi-phase-matched second harmonic generation: tuning and tolerances

TL;DR: The theory of quasi-phase-matched second-harmonic generation in both the space domain and the wave vector mismatch domain is presented in this paper, where various types of errors in the periodicity of these structures are analyzed to find their effects on the conversion efficiency and on the shape of the tuning curve.
