We present a simple model for calculating the second-order optical response of a film of chiral molecules. The difference in the output signal for right or left circularly polarized input is analyzed. A strong enhancement in the normalized differential signal is found for p-polarized output. This is

## Differentiating Tissue Types with Second Harmonic Generation SHG is an important contrast mechanism in optical examination for thick biological tissues. Fibrous proteins, such as myosin and collagen, exhibit biophotonic crystal nature and are dominant SHG harmonophores in vertebrates. Local mol
Acoustically induced optical second harmonic generation (AIOSHG) in InAs single crystals was investigated. With increasing acoustical power, the AIOSHG for fundamental CO laser light (Ξ»=7.1 Β΅m) increases and achieves its maximum value at acoustical power density about 1.70 W/cm 2 . The value of the
