Abstract

The nonlinear optical properties of a metal irradiated by a high power laser radiation are theoretically analyzed. It is shown that in the radiation field the deflection of the distribution function from the equilibrium one leads to sharp relative increase of the image part of the nonlinear current and, hence, to the nonlinear optical response of the surface.
