Abstract

In this paper, we summarize detailed measurements of the frequency dependence of (gamma) ijkl(-(omega) 4;(omega) 1,(omega) 2,(omega) 3) for the third-order nonlinear optical processes dc-induced second harmonic generation (DCSHG) and third harmonic generation (THG) by wedge Maker fringe techniques recently completed for several important linear polyene structures.
