Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The second-harmonic generation susceptibility is theoretically investigated based on the compact density-matrix formalism in two- and three-level AlGaN/GaN systems. The electronic states and their related wave functions were calculated by solving self-consistently the Schrödinger-Poisson equations within the effective mass and Hartree approximations. The presence of spontaneous and piezoelectric polarizations is taken into account in the modeling part. It was revealed from the relevant results that (i) the second-order susceptibility shows a multiple peak structure due to intersubband and their corresponding virtual transitions, (ii) the use of a back doping as well as the optimization of the layer widths in delta-doped AlGaN/GaN asymmetric quantum wells improved considerably the second-harmonic susceptibility, and (iii) the three-level AlGaN/GaN system is the most efficient structure, which generates the second-harmonic with a significant intensity up to 4.36 × 10mV. Numerical results of the present work could lay the basis for research in AlGaN-related optoelectronic device applications.
