Abstract
The spatial distribution of the second-order nonlinearity induced in thermally poled Infrasil silica samples is recorded after thermal annealing experiments. Two regimes have been studied: short and long poling durations. For short poling durations, the observations are in good agreement with a model where only one ion type recombines inside the depletion region. The nonlinear distribution and erasure observed for the other case are well explained by considering the addition of another positive-charged ion injected during the poling process. This second ion acts as a barrier during thermal annealing and reduces the mobility of the first one.
