Second-Order Nonlinear Optical Response of Metal Nanostructures

Article Preview

Abstract:

The second-order responses depend on the structural symmetry of the metal nanostructures, which can give rise to interesting polarization dependences in the responses. We also show that the sensitivity of second-order processes to the symmetry provides important information about plasmonic effects in the nonlinear properties of the structures.
