Abstract

Propagation of electromagnetic waves in the nonlinear homogeneous and nonhomogeneous cylindrical media to generate of third order harmonics is investigated by using numerical solving of the coupled wave equations.‎‎
Calculation show, that the characteristic length of the interaction in homogenous media is very shorter than one in inhomogeneous media. ‎‎ The reason for this behavior is that for inhomogeneous media ‎$ ‎Delta ‎k‎ $‎ is very small and the output wave can get out of phase with its driving polarization at very big length of the interaction (‎$ ‎r‎ $‎). Therefore, as ‎$ ‎Delta ‎k‎ $‎ increases the length of the interaction and the maximum intensity of the generated wave ‎decrease.‎‎ Numerical calculations show that ‎in homogeneous nonlinear optical ‎media phase matching ‎condition‎ is not satisfied, and the generated ‎wave ‎amplitude‎ is smaller than ‎‎‎inhomogeneous nonlinear optical ‎media. The effect of ‎third ‎order‎ nonlinear optical ‎susceptibility‎ ‎on the generated wave ‎amplitude‎ ‎in inhomogeneous ‎media has been ‎investigated.‎
