An intense pump wave propagating in an anisotropic birefringent Kerrlike medium can be switched between orthogonal polarizations through coherent superposition with a weak control signal which slightly perturbs the input polarization state.1,2

Anisotropic properties of pulsed four-wave mixing in Cr^4+:YAG saturable absorbers

A. Brignon

A model of degenerate four-wave mixing (DFWM) in Cr4+:YAG saturable absorbers is given in the transient regime. Because of the presence of absorbing dipoles oriented along specific directions, the DFWM process exhibits an anisotropic behavior. The effects of pump beam fluences, relative polarization of the beams, crystal orientation, absorbance, excited-state absorption, and nonresonant losses are analyzed. The theoretical results are supported by DFWM experiments in Cr4+:YAG performed at 1.06 µm with nanosecond pulses.

Polarization Bistability And Instability In Degenerate Four-Wave Mixing

Kenju Otsuka, Junji Yumoto

Non-integral Maxwell equations are derived for an interfering beam scheme, by taking into account a tensor property inherent in a third-order nonlinear susceptibility, χ (3), and provide new insights into four-wave mixing theory, in particular, polarization bistability and instability.
