Third-order Nonlinear Susceptibility

Third-Order Nonlinear Susceptibility is a fourth-rank tensor quantity in nonlinear optics that characterizes the third-order response of a material's polarization to an applied electric field, distinguishing itself from lower-order susceptibilities by governing phenomena such as intensity-dependent refractive index and four-wave mixing.
