Nonlocal effects on the energy conversion efficiency of the second-harmonic generation (SHG) for a p-polarized incident field in a Pöschl-Teller quantum well (PTQW) are investigated in detail. The numerical results show that the spatial distribution of the second-harmonic field is nonuniform,...

The linear refractive indices and nonlinear second-order susceptibility of hydrated and dehydrated silica micro-spheres are studied using attenuated total reflectance (ATR) and the second harmonic generation (SHG) method in direct transmission, respectively. A dramatic change of the effective...

In order to match the output capacity of a geothermal heat pump system (GHPS) with the actual load requirement, research has been carried out in finding the influence of two systematic parameters, the water flow rate inside the condenser and the compressor input frequency on the GHPS operation....
