【 摘 要 】

We report here a giant vertical bar chi((2))(baa)vertical bar = 780 pm/V second harmonic and vertical bar chi((3))(baa)vertical bar = 1.4 x 10(-17) m(2)/V-2 third harmonic signal from single atomic sheet of buckled hexagonal GaAs. We demonstrate this through the solution of an ab initio real-time Bethe-Salpeter equation by including the electron-hole screened-exchange self-energy. The coupling between time-dependent external electric field and correlated electrons is treated within the modern theory of polarization. The result of our calculation envisage monolayer GaAs to be a prominent member in the material library for nonlinear signal generations.
