The lack of available table-top extreme ultraviolet (XUV) sources with high enough fluxes and coherence properties has limited the availability of nonlinear XUV and x-ray spectroscopies to free-electron lasers (FELs). Here, we demonstrate second harmonic generation (SHG) on a table-top XUV source by observing SHG near the Ti M2,3 edge with a high-harmonic seeded soft x-ray laser. Furthermore, this experiment represents the first SHG experiment in the XUV. First-principles electronic structure calculations suggest the surface specificity and separate the observed signal into its resonant and nonresonant contributions. The realization of XUV-SHG on a table-top source opens up more accessible opportunities for the study of element-specific dynamics in multicomponent systems where surface, interfacial, and bulk-phase asymmetries play a driving role.

By using a real-time approach based on Green's function theory we predict a strong second-harmonic generation (SHG) for frequencies at which Ti:sapphire laser operates and for which the materials are transparent.

ABSTRACTWe present our implementation of the length-gauge formalism of Sipe and coworkers (Phys. Rev. B 48, 11705 (1993); ibid 52, 14636 (1995)) using the linearized muffin-tin orbital (LMTO) method and discuss its application to the calculation of second order response functions. The importance of gap corrections beyond LDA is discussed. As primary application, we discuss the second harmonic generation (SHG) coefficients of the SiC polytypes and of the chalcopyrites of both the II-IV-V2 and I-III-VI2 families. These examples illustrate the relation of the second order response function to the modification of the crystal structure and chemical substitutions.
