Coherent near-infrared light generation based on self-seeded parametric four-wave mixing in Rb vapor

Xuewen Wang, Jinpeng Yuan, Lirong Wang +2 more

Abstract We demonstrate 1.37 µ m coherent near-infrared light generation via self-seeded parametric four-wave mixing (FWM) process in Rb atomic vapor. Two lasers (780 nm and 776 nm) in the co-propagating configuration, drive the Rb atoms from the 5S 1/2 ground state to the 5D 5/2 excited state. The parametric FWM around the 5P 3/2 –5D 5/2 –6P 3/2 –6S 1/2 –5P 3/2 transition loop is effectively established under phase matching conditions. The generated coherent light wavelength is confirmed using an optical spectrum analyzer, and the output power is investigated with the input laser frequency, power and atomic density. Consequently, a 1.37 µ m coherent light with the power of 27 µ W and the beam quality of M x 2 = 1.22 and M y 2 = 1.25 is obtained. An additional 795 nm laser is introduced to enhance the output power by 1.5 times through velocity-selective optical hyperfine repumping.

Bidirectional GHz bandwidth amplified spontaneous emission generation and high output power single-pass optical amplification through a hot Cs vapor cell

Mingyu Lee, Siheon Ryu, Seokjin Kim +4 more

We report the characteristics of GHz bandwidth amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) from a hot Cs atom vapor cell, where the optical feedback was inhibited. When pumped by an 852 nm laser, both forward and backward ASE output near 894 nm showed a nonlinear increase in its power without a pump power threshold. A continual decrease in spectral width down to 4.7 GHz was experimentally observed as the ASE output power increased. Using the same vapor cell, we injected a 1mW signal to configure a single-pass optical amplifier, and we monitored the forward output both in temporal and spectral domains. We found the signal laser efficiently suppressed the ASE and obtained a large amplification factor over 700 at the pump power of 1.2 W.
