    Abstract

    We obtain greatly enhanced conversion efficiencies of backward second-harmonic generation by exploiting small group velocities at phase matching in a two-dimensional quadratically nonlinear photonic crystal. The efficiencies obtained from a modal approach are rigorously confirmed.
