In this article, we present a $T$-matrix method for numerical computation of second-harmonic generation from clusters of arbitrarily distributed spherical particles made of centrosymmetric optical materials. The electromagnetic fields at the fundamental and second-harmonic (SH) frequencies are expanded in series of vector spherical wave functions, and the single sphere $T$-matrix entries are computed by imposing field boundary conditions at the surface of the particles. Different from previous approaches, we compute the SH fields by taking into account both local surface and nonlocal bulk polarization sources, which allows one to accurately describe the generation of SH in arbitrary clusters of spherical particles. Our numerical method can be used to efficiently analyze clusters of spherical particles made of various optical materials, including metallic, dielectric, semiconductor, and polaritonic materials.
The computation of light scattering by the superposition T-matrix scheme has been so far restricted to systems made of particles that are either sparsely distributed or of near-spherical shape. In this work, we extend the range of applicability of th
On the basis of the Edward-Kornfeld formulation, we study the effective susceptibility of secondharmonic generation (SHG) in colloidal crystals, which are made of graded metallodielectric nanoparticles with an intrinsic SHG susceptibility suspended i
Efficient frequency conversion techniques are crucial to the development of plasmonic metasurfaces for information processing and signal modulation. In principle, nanoscale electric-field confinement in nonlinear materials enables higher harmonic con
A scheme for active second harmonics generation is suggested. The system comprises $N$ three-level atoms in ladder configuration, situated into resonant cavity. It is found that the system can lase in either superradiant or subradiant regime, dependi
In this letter we experimentally demonstrate second harmonic conversion in the opaque region of a GaAs cavity with efficiencies of the order of 0.1% at 612nm, using 3ps pump pulses having peak intensities of order of 10MW/cm2. We show that the conver
