Substitution of (1.7.2.15)[link] in (1.7.2.12)[link] yields[\eqalignno{{\bf P}^{(2)}(t)&=\varepsilon_o\textstyle \int \limits_{-\infty}^{+\infty}{\rm d}\omega_1\textstyle \int \limits_{-\infty}^{+\infty}{\rm d}\omega_2\textstyle \int \limits_{-\infty}^{+\infty}{\rm d}\tau_1\textstyle \int \limits_{-\infty}^{+\infty}{\rm d}\tau_2\,\,R^{(2)}(\tau_1,\tau_2)&\cr&\quad\cdot{\bf E}(\omega_1)\otimes{\bf E}(\omega_2)\exp\{-i[\omega_1(t-\tau_1)+\omega_2(t-\tau_2)]\}&\cr&&(1.7.2.18)}]or[\eqalignno{{\bf P}^{(2)}(t)&=\varepsilon_o\textstyle \int \limits_{-\infty}^{+\infty}{\rm d}\omega_1\textstyle \int \limits_{-\infty}^{+\infty}{\rm d}\omega_2\,\,\chi^{(2)}(-\omega_\sigma\semi\omega_1,\omega_2)\cdot{\bf E}(\omega_1)\otimes{\bf E}(\omega_2)&\cr&\quad\times\exp(-i\omega_\sigma t)&(1.7.2.19)}]with[\eqalign{\chi^{(2)}(-\omega_\sigma\semi\omega_1,\omega_2)&=\textstyle \int \limits_{-\infty}^{+\infty}{\rm d}\tau_1\textstyle \int \limits_{-\infty}^{+\infty}{\rm d}\tau_2\,\,R^{(2)}(\tau_1,\tau_2)\cr&\quad \times \exp[i(\omega_1\tau_1+\omega_2\tau_2)]}]and [\omega_\sigma=\omega_1+\omega_2]. Frequencies ω1 and ω2 must be in the upper half of the complex plane to ensure convergence. Reality of R(2) implies [\chi^{(2)}(-\omega_\sigma;\omega_1,\omega_2)^* =] [\chi^{(2)}(\omega_\sigma^*;-\omega_1^*,-\omega_2^*)]. [\chi^{(2)}_{\mu\alpha\beta}(-\omega_\sigma;\omega_1,\omega_2)] is invariant under the interchange of the (α, ω1) and (β, ω2) pairs.
