contents Nonlinear disordered media uniquely combine multiple scattering and second-harmonic generation. Here, we investigate the statistical properties of the nonlinear light generated within such media. We report super-Rayleigh statistics of the second-harmonic speckle intensity, and demonstrate that it is caused by the mesoscopic correlations arising in extreme scattering conditions. The measured conductance is the lowest ever observed in an isotropically scattering 3D medium, with applications in broadband second-harmonic generation, wavefront shaping in nonlinear disordered media, and photonic computing.
