The fields generated at the air/GaN interface <strong>and</strong> E fr1 propagate from point<br />

.-\ to point C in Fig. 6.4. This field is related to Ef2' which is the nonlinear free waw<br />

initially transmitted through the GaN/Ah03 interface as IEfrtl ~ O.lIEnl. :\"'ote<br />

that the fields generated at the air/GaN interface <strong>and</strong> E f2 propagate from point .-\<br />

to point B in Fig. 6.4. Contributions <strong>of</strong> nonlinear waves that undergo more than one<br />

set <strong>of</strong> reflections in the GaN film affect the total transmitted SHG intensity by less<br />

than ",,2% <strong>and</strong> are therefore not included in our theory. The interference <strong>of</strong> E f2 <strong>and</strong><br />

E fr1 is computed by summing their respective contributions at points B<strong>and</strong> C.<br />

In our analysis, we express the nonlinear fields in terms <strong>of</strong> the wavevectors <strong>and</strong><br />
