—A peculiarity of counter-propagating energy-flows in nonlinear left-handed metamaterials (LHMs) is investigated for the case when,the frequency of fundamental wave is in the negative- index range and,second-harmonic wave is in the positive-index range. Based on the electromagnetic theory,the comparisons of Manly-Rowe relations for nonlinear materials and process of second- harmonic generation under phase-matching condition in LHMs and RHMs are shown separately. That a surface of nonlinear left-handed metamaterials operates as an effective mirror which reflects the energy in form of second harmonics is demonstrated. Numerical results of fundamental and second-harmonic field intensity distributions are in agreement with theoretical results.
