Abstract

By unequal-frequency hybrid resonance followed by hybrid resonance four-wave mixing in Na2-Na mixture, broadly tunable UV coherent radiation in the wavelength region 319.2-354.2 nm has been generated. The experimental and theoretical analysis have been focused on the particular mechanism and the features of the UV coherent radiation.

Tunable UV coherent radiation in the wavelength region 319.2 nm to approximately 354.2 nm has been generated by unequal-frequency hybrid resonance of Na2-Na system and followed four-wave mixing. The wave-mixing processes and experimental results are discussed.

TUNABLE UV COHERENT RADIATION GENERATED BY 2-PHOTON HYBRIDRESONANCE IN Na_2-Na

Xiaoli An

The tunable UV coherent radiation in the wavelength regions of 337.66—339.41 nm and 358.04—359.59 nm generated by 2-photon hybrid resonance 4—wave mixing in sodium molecular and atomic systems has been first reported. The mechanism is carefully analyzed and the results are compared with the conventional 2-photon resonance 4-wave mixing effect in pure sodium atomic systems.

Tunable UV coherent radiation and infrared stimulated radiation generated by hybrid pumping in the Na2-Na system

Zugeng Wang, Xiaoling Tang, Kai-Chang Zhang +2 more

For the first time by means of two-photon hybrid excitation in the Na2-Na system, which is distinguished from the usual two-photon excitation in atomic vapor, tunable UV coherent radiation (between 337.6 and 339.1 nm and between 358.0 and 359.6 nm) and tunable infrared stimulated radiation (3.38-3.46 µm) were generated. By optically pumping with a pulsed dye laser scanning from 614.5 to 617.4 nm for sodium vapor in a heat-pipe oven, Na2 was excited by the first photon absorption from the X ′ Σ g + to the A ′ Σ u + state. The energy was transferred to Na by Na2*-Na collision to populate the levels 3p1/2,3/2 in Na, which was followed by another photon excitation from the same beam up to near the 5S level, resulting in SERS (3P1/2-4P and 3P3/2-4P) and OPSE(5S → 4P and 4P → 4S) radiation. Assuming the detunings of pumping frequency ω1, from ω(5S,3P3/2) and ω(5s,3p1/2) to be Δ1 and Δ2, respectively, the three UV coherent radiation components were supposed to be generated by the following mixing processes: ωUV = 2ω1 − ω(5S − 4P); ω U V ′ = 2 ω 1 − [ ω ( 5 S → 4 P ) + Δ 1 ] ; ω U V ′ ′ = 2 ω 1 − [ ω ( 5 S → 4 P ) + Δ 2 ] , and also ω U V ′ ′ ′ = 2 ω 1 − ω ( 4 P → 4 S ) . The SERS and the UV signals were tuned as the pumping wavelength was tuned. The measured wavelengths agreed well with the calculated values.

Zugeng Wang, 华东师范大学物理系,上海,200062

This paper reports the generation of the coherent and stimulated radiation in UV, visible and infrared regions by two-photon pumping. It includes the tunable coherent radiation around 1.03 μm generated by a special six-wave mixing process, the stimulated radiation at 812.6 nm generated by molecular two-photon dissociation or atomic cascade transition, coherent radiation at 323.3 nm and 670.8 nm generated by the four-wave mixings.

Generation of continuously tunable coherent vacuum-ultraviolet radiation in Cd vapor

Kenzo Miyazaki, Hirofumi Sakai, Takuzo Sato

Continuously tunable coherent vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) radiation has been generated in the 128.7-135.3-nm region by two-photon resonant four-wave mixing in Cd vapor. The generated VUV has no spectral structure over the tuning range and indicates that Cd vapor is an efficient nonlinear medium for frequency conversion.
