Abstract :
Generation of a tunable resonance-enhanced third harmonic in rare gases with different conical beams (Bessel and segmented conical beams) has been studied. A possibility of controlling the nonlinear response by spatial selection of interacting waves in conical beams is demonstrated and discussed.
