Popis: We have conducted a spectroscopic investigation of the enhancement of nonlinear optical effects around a defect in a one-dimensional photonic crystal. Degenerate four-wave mixing studies were performed on a dielectric stack that contained a polymer thin-film defect layer doped with a nonlinear organic dye. This sample exhibited a large nonlinear response at a resonant defect frequency. Nonlinear spectroscopy was performed around the defect resonance and at frequencies well away from resonance. We have shown that the four-wave mixing signal exhibits extremely high-quality resonance, consistent with the expected cubic dependence on the calculated intensity within the defect layer.
