High-reflectivity four-wave mixing by saturable gain in Rhodamine 6G dye

Four-wave mixing in a saturated gain medium has been modeled numerically, and the predictions for the reflectivity have been compared with experiments carried out in the laser-pumped dye Rhodamine 6G. It is demonstrated that the saturable absorption of the inversion laser pump has a dramatic influence on the intensity dependence of the four-wave-mixing reflectivity.

Phase Conjugation by Degenerate Four-wave Mixing in Inverted Dye Solutions

P.A. Routledge, Terence A. King

Phase conjugation has been observed in an amplifying medium of rhodamine 6G dye molecules in solution, excited either by flashlamps or by a laser. It is found that the mechanism involved in phase conjugation is degenerate four-wave mixing through gain saturation, and reasonable agreement obtained with the theory of saturable amplifiers. A phase-conjugate signal was observed over the tuning range of the dye system (580–605 nm) and a reflectivity up to a maximum of 25% was obtained.

Amplification of multiwave mixing in lasing dyes and polarization recording of dynamic holograms

Omar A. Ormachea, Alexei L. Tolstik

This work presents theoretical and experimental studies of the energy efficiency of multiwave mixing in complex molecular media (dye solutions) exhibiting higher order nonlinearities. There is a great variety of such media, including the resonance ones revealing nonlinearities of higher orders due to the absorption saturation effect and transitions between different excited states of the molecules. However, the majority of previous studies of multiwave mixing have been performed in the resonant medium approximation disregarding the induced anisotropy effect. A new method for enhancement of multiwave mixing in solutions of laser dyes has been proposed and substantiated with the use of lasing as an additional light beam, whose absorption by the molecules in the excited states leads to the formation of thermal dynamic gratings resultant in the improved efficiency of the energy exchange. The theoretical models for the formation of nonlinear dynamic holograms adequately describing the control process over multiwave mixing by an independent light beam, the frequency of which is tuned into the induced absorption band from the molecules in the excited state, have been developed. Polarization multiwave mixing has been realized in Rhodamine-6G dye solution using nonlinearities up to the ninth order inclusive. It has been demonstrated that on orthogonal polarization of the hologram recording waves the diffraction efficiency is lowered by one-two orders, the diffracted wave polarization being dependent on the diffraction order (the polarization plane alignment is identical within the orders of the same evenness).
