Domain-Engineered Ferroelectric Crystals for Nonlinear and Quantum Optics

This chapter reviews some experimental applications of non-linear optical processes occurring in periodically-poled ferroelectric crystals. Namely, we report both on spectroscopy/metrology in the mid IR and quantum light generation/detection in the visibl
