Four-photon resonance parametric up-conversion of a weak infrared signal in a nonmonochromatic pump field

N. A. Iskanderov, Vladimir A. Kudryashov, I. N. Matveev +1 more

Four-photon parametric up-conversion of a weak infrared signal under conditions of two-photon resonance of a constant nonmonochromatic pump field is analyzed allowing for population migration, transient response of the medium, Stark shift of the levels, and width of the pump frequency spectrum. It is found that under steady-state conversion conditions in a nonmonochromatic pump field, it is possible to achieve an average conversion efficiency differing only negligibly from the maximum conversion efficiency in a monochromatic pump field. An analysis is made of the influence of optically induced relaxation on the average conversion efficiency in the transient regime. Numerical estimates are made of the transition parameters for an alkali metal vapor in a frequency-degenerate pump field exciting a two-photon transition.

Six-photon resonance parametric up-conversion in a nonmonochromatic pump field

N. A. Iskanderov, Vladimir A. Kudryashov, I. N. Matveev +1 more

Six-photon parametric up-conversion under conditions of two-, three-, and four-photon resonance of a constant nonmonochromatic pump field is analyzed allowing for population migration, transient response of the medium, Stark shift of the levels, and width of the frequency spectrum of the the pump field. It is found that in the steady-state conversion regime, the maximum average conversion efficiency in the four-photon resonance case differs only negligibly from the maximum conversion efficiency in a monochromatic field, whereas in the two-photon and three-photon resonance cases it is higher than the maximum efficiency in a monochromatic pump field. An analysis is made of the influence of optically induced relaxation on the average conversion efficiency under conditions of pulsed excitation of two-, three-, and four-photon resonances.

Two-Photon Resonant Four-Wave Mixing And Multiphoton Ionization Of Cesium In A Heat Pipe Oven

S. M. Hamadani, John A. D. Stockdale, R. N. Compton

Optical pumping of cesium vapor in a heat pipe oven in which the energy of two near-infrared photons is close to the 6D states results in high conversion efficiency (up to 1.7%) of the near-infrared pump light to intense blue, forward-propagating radiation. The blue light corresponds to the 7P-6S transition. The dependence of conversion efficiency upon focusing conditions, cell length, and pump intensity is presented. Absorption and gain coefficients are measured in a second heat pipe. The results are discussed in terms of optically pumped stimulated emission (OPSE), stimulated electronic Raman scattering (SERS), and subsequent nonlinear four-wave mixing of two pump-laser photons and one SERS or OPSE infrared photon leading to parametric generation at w = 2WL -wiR.
