Difference-frequency Generation

Difference-Frequency Generation is a nonlinear optical process in which two incident electromagnetic waves of differing frequencies interact within a nonlinear medium to produce a new wave whose frequency is the difference between the original two, thereby enabling coherent frequency conversion in the infrared and terahertz spectral regions.
