The second harmonic generation in the symmetric well containing a rectangular barrier

The problem of determination of the maximum of second harmonic generation in the potential well containing a rectangular barrier is considered. It is shown that, in general, the problem of finding the ensemble of structures with equidistant first three levels has two types of solutions. For the first type the second and third energy levels are located above a rectangular barrier, and for the second type the third level is located above the barrier only. It is also shown, that generation corresponding to the second type of solution always is less than generation for the first one. Taking into account the effective mass changes the problem of finding the generation maximum for a finite depth well is exactly solved.
