Nonlinear effects in manybody van der Waals interactions

Van der Waals interactions are ubiquitous and they play an important role for the stability of materials. Current understanding of this type of coupling is based on linear response theory, while optical nonlinearities are rarely considered in this context. Many materials, however, exhibit strong opt...
