Spatial Splitting and Intensity Suppression of Four-Wave Mixing in V-Type Three-Level Atomic System

We illustrate our experimental observation of coexisting the controllable spatial splitting and intensity suppression of four-wave mixing (FWM) beam in a V-type three-level atomic system. The peak number and separation distance of the FWM beam are controlled by the intensities and frequencies of the laser beams, as well as atomic density.

Controlling cascade dressing interaction of four-wave mixing image

Changbiao Li, Yanpeng Zhang, Huaibin Zheng +7 more

We report our observations on enhancement and suppression of spatial four-wave mixing (FWM) images and the interplay of four coexisting FWM processes in a two-level atomic system associating with three-level atomic system as comparison. The phenomenon of spatial splitting of the FWM signal has been observed in both x and y directions. Such FWM spatial splitting is induced by the enhanced cross-Kerr nonlinearity due to atomic coherence. The intensity of the spatial FWM signal can be controlled by an additional dressing field. Studies on such controllable beam splitting can be very useful in understanding spatial soliton formation and interactions, and in applications of spatial signal processing.

Polarized Spatial Splitting of Four-Wave Mixing Signal in Multi-Level Atomic Systems

Yu-Xin Fu, Jinyan Zhao, Yue Li Song +3 more

We illustrate our experimental observation of the periodic changes of spatial splitting of the generated four-wave mixing (FWM) signal induced by different polarization states of one of the dressing beams. It is pointed out that the changes of intensity of the dressing beam and the FWM signal have influences on the spatial splitting and their influences compete with each other. The differences between p- and s-polarized FWM beams are demonstrated. The influences of the dressing beams, which lead to the larger spatial splitting with different polarization states or frequency detuning, are observed as well.
