Calculations on nonlinear optical properties for large systems : The elongation method, Paperback / softback Book

Calculations on nonlinear optical properties for large systems : The elongation method Paperback / softback

Part of the SpringerBriefs in Electrical and Magnetic Properties of Atoms, Molecules, and Clusters series

Paperback / softback

Description

For design purposes one needs to relate the structure of proposed materials to their NLO (nonlinear optical) and other properties, which is a situation where theoretical approaches can be very helpful in providing suggestions for candidate systems that subsequently can be synthesized and studied experimentally.

This brief describes the quantum-mechanical treatment of the response to one or more external oscillating electric fields for molecular and macroscopic, crystalline systems.

To calculate NLO properties of large systems, a linear scaling generalized elongation method for the efficient and accurate calculation is introduced.

The reader should be aware that this treatment is particularly feasible for complicated three-dimensional and/or delocalized systems that are intractable when applied to conventional or other linear scaling methods.
