In this review, we discuss our recent theoretical work on the nonlinear optical response of graphene and its sister structure in terahertz （THz） and near-infrared frequency regime. Due to Dirac-like linear energymomentum dispersion, the third-order nonlinear current in graphene is much stronger than...
