We have investigated the second-harmonic generation with the conduction states of InAs/GaAs self-assembled quantum dots. The harmonic generation is resonant with intersublevel transitions, and in particular with the s-p transition. This transition, polarized along the [110] and the [-110] directions, exhibits a large dipole matrix dement (3 nm). The frequency doubling is achieved around 20 mum wavelength using the s-p and the p-d transitions. The double resonance leads to a resonant enhancement of the susceptibility with a linewidth lower than 1 meV. We show that the polarization dependence of the susceptibility follows the polarization selection rule of the intersublevel transitions. The susceptibility amplitude is deduced by comparison with phase-matched second-harmonic generation in bulk GaAs. A susceptibility as large as 2.5 x 10(-6) m/V for one quantum dot plane is measured. This susceptibility is four orders of magnitude larger than the susceptibility of bulk GaAs.
