<Alan Hill>, credited as <A. E. Hill>, coauthored the 1961 <observation> of optical <harmonic> generation. A sufficiently intense optical field drives a nonlinear material response, producing light at a multiple of the incident <frequency>.
The <experiment> connected <nonlinear polarization> with a measured new spectral component, helping establish experimental <nonlinear optics>. The source author list is the verified attribution; no unverified personal dates or appointments are added.<Generation of Optical Harmonics by Peter Alden Franken and others>[1961, author list and reported harmonic-generation experiment]{ref}
