Abstract
The generation of the sum frequency of visible (0.5235 mu m) and IP (1 0 mu m) radiation on smooth and corrugated silver surfaces is investig ated. The sum-frequency signal obtained with a visible-range surface p lasmon-polariton excited on a corrugated silver-air interface is found to be more than four orders of magnitude stronger than the signal fro m a smooth silver surface.
