[Th-P2-H-05]Second Harmonic Generation due to Spatial Structure of Radiation

〇Mikhail Durnev1, Alexey Gunyaga1, Sergey Tarasenko1 (1. Ioffe Inst. (Russia))
We show that spatially structured radiation generates a second harmonic even in homogeneous and isotropic media. The effect originates from the nonlocality of the electric response to the structured electromagnetic field. We develop an analytical theory of such a second harmonic generation in conducting two-dimensional systems.
