We show that the second order nonlinear generation of light, a process that it is assumed to require highly ordered materials, is also possible in structures of randomly oriented nonlinear domains. We explain theoretically why in such disordered structures the efficiency of the nonlinear generation of light grows linearly with the number of domains. Moreover, a higher degree of disorder, obtained when the dispersion is made very large, has no negative effect for the nonlinear light generation. In such conditions, light generation is shown to be equally efficient for any average size of the domains and also to grow linearly with respect to the number of domains.
