- In light: Nonlinear interactions
The field of nonlinear optics describes interactions in which the response of the atomic oscillators is no longer simply proportional to the intensity of the incoming light wave. Nonlinear optics has many significant applications in communications and photonics, information processing, schemes for optical computing and storage, and spectroscopy.
