  • Abstract
    The self-organised second harmonic generation (SHG) in optical fibres is explained as a consequence of a convective instability leading to spontaneous formation of the chi (2) grating due to the growth of small fluctuations. The authors show that the observed SHG should be interpreted as amplification of noise.
