Harmonic generation and wave mixing in nonlinear metamaterials and photonic crystals (Invited paper)
The basic concepts and phenomenology of wave mixing and harmonic generation are reviewed in context of the recent advances in the enhanced nonlinear activity in metamaterials and photonic crystals. The effects of dispersion, field confinement and phase synchronism are illustrated by the examples of the on-purpose designed artificial nonlinear structures.  2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
