TLDR
In this paper, the authors investigated the harmonic generation of an incident extraordinary wave at the upper hybrid and cyclotron frequency in a homogeneous plasma located in a uniform magnetic field, where the incident microwave propagated along the density gradient in the direction of decreasing magnetic field such that the harmonic emission was spatially localized.
Abstract
Harmonic generation of an incident extraordinary wave at the upper hybrid and cyclotron frequency in a homogeneous plasma located in a uniform magnetic field was investigated. In the experimental configuration the incident microwave propagated along the density gradient in the direction of decreasing magnetic field such that the harmonic emission was spatially localised.

Second harmonic generation in a cyclotron and upper hybrid resonant plasma

TL;DR: In this paper, an experiment is described in which an electromagnetic wave (extraordinary mode) is propagated across a magnetized plasma and second harmonic generation is detected, which can be explained in terms of the spatial variations of the magnetic field intensity and the electron number density.

Nonlinear Wave Mixing at Hybrid Frequencies in an Inhomogeneous Plasma

TL;DR: In this article, the nonlinear coupling of waves near the hybrid resonances for a magnetized inhomogeneous plasma is investigated, and two special examples of wave wave mixing are discussed in detail, namely, harmonic generation at the upper hybrid frequency and excitation of longitudinal waves of frequency near the lower hybrid.

Second‐Harmonic Generation in Plasmas by Nonuniform Microwave Fields

TL;DR: In this article, a Boltzmann-equation analysis of the nonlinear generation of the second harmonic in the current density in a slightly ionized plasma, arising from the nonuniform nature of the applied microwave field, is presented.

Harmonic generation in cold nonuniform plasma in a magnetic field.

F. A. Blum
- 01 Jan 1971 - 
TL;DR: Theoretical discussion of harmonic generation in cold bounded nonuniform magnetoplasmas predicts weak even order harmonic generation (compared to odd order) and strong resonances near cyclotron and maximum upper hybrid resonances for small collision frequencies as mentioned in this paper.
