Abstract
A process of generation of second harmonic frequency (S.H.G.) in focused light beam with the Gaussian distribution of light intensity is studied with the help of generalized diffraction theory in this work. Three methods of focusing are considered, namely, focusing with the spherical lens, focusing with the cylindrical lens in the plane of the principal cut and finally focusing with the cylindrical lens in the plane perpendicular to the plane of the principal cut. Two cases are discussed, namely, the case of S.H.G. in “diffractionless” light beam and the case of S.H.G. in strongly diffracted light beam.
