Sequences for controlling laser excitation with femtosecond three-pulse four-wave mixing

Igor Pastirk, Emily J. Brown, Bruna Irene Grimberg +2 more

Three-pulse four-wave mixing (FWM) is used here to study and control laser excitation processes. For general laser excitation processes, after a molecule interacts resonantly with a laser pulse, the molecule has a probability of being in the ground or in the excited state. Control over this process depends on the phase and amplitude of the electric fields that interact with the molecular system. Here we show how three-pulse FWM can be used to control the excitation of iodine molecules. Depending on the time delay between the first two pulses, the observed signal reflects the dynamics of the ground or excited state. A theoretical formalism based on the density matrix formulation is presented and solved for a four-level system. Experiments are found to be in excellent agreement with the theory. The influence of linear chirp on three-pulse FWM experiments is explored. Spectrally dispersed three-pulse FWM is found to be extremely useful for studying the effect of chirp on laser excitation of molecular systems. Experimental demonstrations of these effects are included.

The Influence Of Magnetic Field On The Diffraction Efficiency Of Holograms In Resonant Media

Alexander S. Rubanov, R. N. Onoshko, M. R. Kholodok

The influence of magnetic field on the wave-front conjugation at degenerate four-wave mixing in resonant-absorbing atomic iodine va-pors has been studied theoretically. It is shown that depending on the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field, interacting waves pola-rization, as well as on the interaction length and intensity of pump waves, the conjugation efficiency can both increase and decrease. The greatest increase in the wave-front conjugation efficiency of radia-tion with a frequency corresponding to the line centre F =4- r =3 is attained in a transverse magnetic field with the interacting waves polarization orthogonal to the field.

Four-wave mixing due to ionization of vapor

Anatoliy I. Khizhnyak, Vladimir B. Markov, Igor Savukov +1 more

Several different schemes of four wave mixing (FWM) in resonant media, particularly, using ionized atomic or molecular vapor states, are considered. It is shown that the most efficient process can be achieved with FWM scheme using the ion grating. In this case spatial mismatch between recording interference pattern and light induced grating can be provided, when external electric field is applied to recording non-linear medium.
