1.1.1 Non-linear susceptibility and polarization

When a dielectric medium is illuminated by an intense optical wave, such as that emitted by a laser, the displacement of electrons under the effect of this applied field becomes anharmonic [E 1 965] . Consequently, the polarization vector P of the set of dipoles in the optical medium is expressed as a power development of the applied electric field E :...
