Abstract

The influence of a strong laser pump field on adiabatic relaxation of quantum systems is shown to enhance considerably the small-signal gain in the case of four-wave mixing.

Squeezed-radiation-enhanced four-wave mixing in intense pumps

G. V. Varada, G. S. Agarwal

The nature of the nonlinear response of a quantum system in the presence of broadband squeezed radiation is examined. The relaxation of the system in the presence of squeezed radiation leads to enhancement of the four-wave-mixing signal.

Four-wave mixing under conditions when optical Bloch equations fail

Sunita Singh, G. S. Agarwal

The nonlinear-optical properties of a system whose collisional dynamics are strongly affected by intense pump fields are calculated. The four-wave mixing signals can be affected in a dramatic way if the period of the Rabi oscillation is comparable with the correlation time of the collisional mechanism.

Optical Phase Conjugation Using Four-Wave Mixing in Laser Diodes Subject to Strong Probe Injection Power

Yanhua Hong, Jianming Tang, K. Alan Shore

Optical phase conjugation through nearly degenerate four-wave mixing (NDFWM) in semiconductor lasers has attracted considerable attention in recent years since being first demonstrated by Nakajima and Frey[ 1 ]. Such interest arises due to the very high conjugate reflectivity of order 30-40dB which can be achieved owing to the amplifying effect of the semiconductor gain medium and cavity enhancement of mixing process. However, most previous experimental and theoretical work has placed emphasis on the weak signal case, where the injection signal acts only as a small perturbation of free-running laser diode. It is only very recently that a theoretical analysis of NDFWM in a semiconductor laser subject to strong probe injection power has been presented[2].

Nonlinear Dynamical Effects in the Absorption Spectra of Weak Electromagnetic Field and in Four-Wave Mixing

É. G. Pestov, Anatoly N. Oraevsky

The new nonlinear dynamical effects due to the influence of strong laser field (LF) on relaxation processes in two-level quantum systems are investigated. The dramatic change of the dependence of the probe field absorption spectral line shape and four-wave mixing amplification coefficient of weak field on LF intensity is discussed.

Propagation and Parametric Amplification in Four-Wave Mixing Processes: Intramolecular Coupling and High-Order Effects

José Luis Paz, Patricio J. Espinoza-Montero, Marcos Loroño +7 more

A strong pump-power dependence of the four-wave mixing (FWM) signal for an aqueous solution of Malachite green is reported. The characteristics of the pump-power dependence of the nonlinear signal are reproduced by a theoretical model based on the coupling between pump-probe, considering signal fields and propagation effects. The effect of the intramolecular coupling on the nonlinear intensity of the FWM signal is studied using a model molecule consisting of two-coupled harmonic curves of electronic energies with minima displaced in energy and nuclear positions. Two-vibrational states are considered while including non-adiabatic effects for the two-state model. Moreover, the coupling among the field components, as well as the propagation effects, are studied by considering a constant pump-intensity. Our calculation scheme, considering both the intramolecular coupling effects in the description of the molecular structure and the effects produced by the propagation of the FWM signal along the optical length, allows the exponential dependence of the latter, as the intensity of the pumping beam increases. Our treatments do not require the inclusion of other non-resonant processes outside the RWA approximation, due to the consideration of an adiabatic basis.
