Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 047402 (2008) [4 pages]Classical Theory of Optical Nonlinearity in Conducting NanoparticlesReceived 10 August 2007; published 29 January 2008 We develop a classical theory of electron confinement in conducting nanoparticles. The theory is used to compute the nonlinear optical response of the nanoparticle to a harmonic external field. © 2008 The American Physical Society URL:
