Abstract
The problem of second-harmonic generation by a plane elliptically polarized electromagnetic wave from a thin optically nonlinear layer on the surface of a cylindrical dielectric particle of finite dimensions placed in a dielectric medium has been solved analytically in the Rayleigh–Gans–Debye approximation. The result has been presented in the tensor and vector forms in the general case, in which the nonlinear dielectric susceptibility tensor has four independent components (one chiral component and three nonchiral components). It has been shown for the first time that the contribution of chiral components to the generation from the butt-end surfaces of a cylindrical particle differs in phase from the contribution of nonchiral components. It has also been revealed that, if the linear dimensions of a cylindrical particle (height and base radius) are small, the radiation determined by the chiral component of the second-order nonlinear dielectric susceptibility tensor makes a predominant contribution to the second-harmonic generation from a nonlinear cylindrical layer (butt-end and lateral surfaces).
