Toy model of harmonic and sum frequency generation in 2D dielectric nanostructures
Scientific Reports, 2021 Optical nonlinearities of matter are often associated with the response of individual atoms. Here, using a toy oscillator model, we show that in the confined geometry of a two-dimensional dielectric nanoparticle a collective nonlinear response of the ...
