Question: Explain why the nonlinear susceptibilities for an isotropic medium have the forms given in Eq. (10.25). What are the corresponding forms, in an isotropic medium,

Explain why the nonlinear susceptibilities for an isotropic medium have the forms given in Eq. (10.25).


What are the corresponding forms, in an isotropic medium, of χij klmn and χijklmnp?


Xij = Xogij, Xijkl = dijk = 0, X4(gij9kl + gik9jl +9ilgjk),

Xij = Xogij, Xijkl = dijk = 0, X4(gij9kl + gik9jl +9ilgjk), Xijklm = 0,.... (10.25)
