In this paper, we report on the sharp peak observed in the third harmonic voltage response generated by a bias sinusoidal current applied to several strips patterned in a YBa2Cu3O7-d thin film and in two La1-xSrxCuO4 thin films, when the temperature is close to the normal-superconductor transition. The lambda-shaped temperature dependence of the third harmonic signal on the current characteristics is studied. Several physical mechanisms of third harmonic generation are examined. PACS Code/Keywords: 74.25.Fy - Third harmonic response, Non-linear voltage response, High-Tc Superconductor.
