Abstract

Surprisingly, the exact macro-world nonlinear mechanisms known for decades are also invoked in nano-scale nonlinear optics. In this talk, we will present a nonlinear optical mechanism that can only be found once the spatial dimension of a system is below the electromagnetic penetration depth. We will describe our experiments with the second harmonic generation (SHG) and optical rectification and discuss future research directions such as third-order effects, high harmonic generation, and chaos.
