“…2,3 Unfortunately this error seems to be quite indicative of the later development with numerous measurements using different techniques obtaining data for the hyperpolarizability of C 60 scattered between 10 Ϫ24 and 10 Ϫ35 esu, i.e., an indeterminacy of 11 orders of magnitude. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Such discrepancies reflect many different problems encountered in experimental measurements as discussed in Ref. 15 and as also commented below.…”

The linear polarizability, α, and the second hyperpolarizability, γ, of C60 in gas phase have been computed by ab initio cubic response theory in the random phase approximation and with an efficient parallel implementation. With a tailored, well-tested, basis set, containing more than 1000 contracted basis functions the average values of α and γ are predicted to be 8.58×10−23 cm3 and 5.73×10−35 esu, respectively, which are about 8 and 9 times larger than the corresponding values for benzene calculated at the same level of accuracy.

“…The nonlinear optical mechanisms responsible for low-order (i.e. second and third) harmonic generation in fullerenes were analysed in [158] and [159], respectively. High values of nonlinear optical susceptibilities were obtained in those studies ( (3) (À3!…”

“…For a spherical particle, this reduces to bare scr aLIL, 6 [1+are(w)/4] For a small metal sphere, this is just a, and we recover the classical expression for the screened polarizability of a metal sphere. Quantum-mechanical calculations for the polarizability of metal spheres show that this estimate is quite good.…”

We present a phenomenological theory of nonlinear optical response of fullerenes. An empirical tight-binding model is used in conjunction with a classical electromagnetic picture for the screening. Since in bulk media such a picture of screening corresponds to the self-consistent field approach, the only additional approximation involved in our approach is the neglect of nonlocality. We obtain reliable estimates for the linear and nonlinear susceptibilities of C60, C70, C76 and other pure carbon fullerenes and also substituted fullerenes. The relatively large values of /3 that we obtain for C76 and substituted fullerenes appear promising for the development of fullerene-based nonlinear optical materials.Our phenomenological picture of screening provides a good understanding of the linear absorption spectra of higher fullerenes and predicts that a comparison of the one-photon and multi-photon spectra will provide an insight into screening effects in these systems.
