Abstract. Effect of second harmonic generation in non-linear resonator inside electromagnetic crystal formed by an array of metal cylinders with non-linear capacitors located in parallel plate waveguide is investigated. Mathematical model of the structure based on the simultaneous solution of electromagnetic boundary problem and non-linear problem for voltages and currents in non-linear elements is considered. Resonators with single and double-sided excitation are studied. It is shown that in resonator with single-sided excitation energy of wave with dominant frequency may be almost completely transformed in energy of wave with doubled frequency.
