Proposed rephrase of introduction:
"is a non-linear optical process that consists of the generation of a quasi-DC polarization in a non-linear medium at the passage of an intense optical beam." confused two of us that it was a "DC polarization" of some EM field. Somehow.
Perhaps "is a non-linear optical process that induces quasi-DC material polarization of the non-linear medium..." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.34.3.183 (talk) 12:11, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
- Sure. It's unfortunate that polarization has those two very different meanings in electromagnetism. If you write it as "material polarization" then that's clearer. "Dielectric polarization" is another option. --Steve (talk) 00:21, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
