Summary
DescriptionElectron asymmetric motion animation.gif |
English: An electron (purple) is being pushed side-to-side by a sinusoidally-oscillating force. But because the electron is in an anharmonic potential (black curve), the electron motion is not sinusoidal. The three arrows show the Fourier series of the motion: The blue arrow corresponds to ordinary (linear) susceptibility, the green arrow corresponds to second-harmonic generation, and the red arrow corresponds to optical rectification. |
