Abstract
The spectral dependence of the efficiency of generation of the forbidden (in the electric-dipole approximation) second harmonic (FSH) and its energy on the energy of the excitation pulses is investigated experimentally in a highly disperse suspension of purple membranes containing bacteriorhodopsin (BR) under excitation by femtosecond laser pulses into the single-photon absorption band of BR. The experimental data for the case of resonance excitation attest to an interference character of the interaction of optical nonlinearities of different orders in the process leading to the formation of the FSH signal.
