What is Optical Harmonics Generation in Quartz about?
1. Scientists used a ruby laser to generate intense beams of monochromatic light focused into crystalline quartz, observing the production of the second harmonic wavelength (half the original). 2. Quartz has nonlinear properties allowing polarization induced by an electric field to include higher harmonics of the fundamental frequency when the field is oscillating. 3. The experiment generated ~10^6 second harmonic photons per laser pulse, demonstrating efficient harmonic generation in quartz.
