چکیده
We study the effective second-harmonic generation (SHG) susceptibility in graded metallic films by invoking the local field effects exactly, and further numerically demonstrate that the graded metallic films can serve as a novel optical material for producing a broad structure in both the linear and SHG response and an enhancement in the SHG signal. ocis: 160.4330, 310.6860, 160.4670, 160.4760.

متن کاملSecond-harmonic generation in graded metal–dielectric films of anisotropic particles
We investigate theoretically the effective second-harmonic generation (SHG) susceptibility in graded films of metal–dielectric random composites with anisotropically shaped particles by invoking the local field effects. Using numerical examples, we demonstrate that in the presence of gradation profiles and/or shape effects, graded metal–dielectric films could be used as novel optical materials ...
متن کاملOptical nonlinearity enhancement of graded metallic films
The effective linear and third-order nonlinear susceptibility of graded metallic films with weak nonlinearity have been investigated. Due to the simple geometry, we were able to derive exactly the local field inside the graded structures having a Drude dielectric gradation profile. We calculated the effective linear dielectric constant and third-order nonlinear susceptibility. We investigated t...
متن کاملNondegenerate four-wave mixing in graded metallic films
The effective nondegenerate four-wave mixing (NDFM) susceptibility of graded metallic films with weak nonlinearity is exactly derived by invoking the local-field effects. It is found that the presence of gradation in metallic films can yield a broad resonant plasmon band in the optical region, which results in a large enhancement in the NDFM response and thus a large figure of merit. © 2005 Ame...
متن کاملVolume electric dipole origin of second-harmonic generation from metallic membrane with noncentrosymmetric patterns.
We analytically study second-harmonic (SH) generation from thin metallic films with subwavelength noncentrosymmetric patterns. Because the thickness of the film is much smaller than the SH wavelength, retardation effects are negligible. The far-field SH intensities are thus dominated by an effective electric dipole. It is further demonstrated that internal bulk SH polarization density is compar...
