A theory is presented that describes the generation of radiation at the anti-Stokes frequency 2 omega(1) - omega(2) created by two coherent light beams, with a difference in frequency omega(1) - omega(2), injected into an array of uniformly sized and closely packed semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), which are oriented along the polarization vector of all involved optical waves. Both the real and imaginary parts of the third-order nonlinear susceptibility chi((3)), respon sible for such an optical-frequency mixing, are calculated within a simple model based on the two-band approximation of the electronic structure of SWCNTs. It is shown that one can maximize the nonlinear optical response by tuning independently the frequencies omega(1) and omega(2) in resonance with the lowest interband transitions of the semiconducting SWCNTs. The highest peak value of vertical bar chi((3))vertical bar under such a resonance excitation is found to be about 10(-2) esu, which may be important for nonlinear optical applications of SWCNTs.
