Resonant second harmonic generation in potassium vapor
- Univ. of California, Berkeley, CA (United States). Dept. of Physics
Picosecond pulses are used to study resonant second harmonic generation in potassium vapor. Although the process is both microscopically and macroscopically forbidden, it can readily be observed. The results can be quantitatively understood by a multiphoton-ionization-initiated, dc-field-induced, coherent transient model.
