| Abstract: | The nonlinear generation of second harmonic electromagnetic waves in a thin inhomogeneous (dense and rarefied) plasma layer (of lengthd) by obliquely and normally incident light waves is analyzed. We consider the effect of an external time-dependent magnetic field on the generation and amplification of waves. Two cases are considered, when the magnetic field oscillates at a frequency (i) equal to and (ii) double that of the incident wave. For normal incidence, waves are not radiated in case (i), while in case (ii) the second harmonics are radiated equally from the plasma boundaries atx=0 andx=d. For a rarefied plasma, the second harmonics are radiated with equal amplitudes in both cases. |
