Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are 2D-materials with a direct bandgap in a range of 1.0 to 2.5 eV. They exhibit strong second-order nonlinearity per unit thickness, making them interesting for nonlinear light-conversion devices. Due to their small thickness, an interaction enhancement is, however, required for efficient operation. Here we analyze dielectric Bragg mirror based resonators (DBR) for SHG-enhancement, where the DBR provides resonances for both, the fundamental wave and the second harmonic alike. Through careful design and optimization, we optimize the design to exhibit high Q-factors. We then report on the fabrication of such cavities, with an ion-assisted deposition process. We show that high Q-factors at the pump wavelength and the second harmonic is achieved. We then demonstrate enhanced second-harmonic generation and discuss possible generalization schemes.
