Abstract
Greatly improved second-harmonic emission has been obtained from dye monolayers adsorbed at quartz etalons. Two different types of interferometers have been studied in terms of the SH signal from dye coverage versus harmonic background emission. The phasematching-like conditions for constructive interferometric enhancement and the concomitant spatial and spectral emission characteristics are discussed in detail.
