Abstract
Fused silica is ubiquitous in modern technology, playing an essential enabling role in both optoelectronics and microelectronics. Fused silica is amorphous with a macroscopic inversion symmetry that forbids second harmonic generation (SHG). Thus the discovery by Österberg et. al. [1] of efficient SHG in glass fibers upon "training" with optical fields has generated considerable in terest.
