Abstract

Direct decay of pump photons into triplets is an interesting but not-yet-realized nonlinear effect. We are exploring two approaches using photonic crystal fibers: a gas-filled hollow-core PCF and the recently designed hybrid solid-core PCF.

Direct observation of third-order spontaneous down conversion, where three low energy photons are generated from a single one, remains a challenging task. We report here on different strategies based on engineered optical fibers. These include gas-filled hollow-core photonic crystal fibers, hybrid- and tapered fibers.

Generation of spontaneous third-order down conversion as the reverse of third harmonic generation remains a challenging task, not yet demonstrated. We present different possible strategies involving gas-filled hollow-core photonic crystal fibres, hybrid fibres and tapered fibres in gas.
