Four-wave mixing with matter waves The advent of the laser as an intense source of coherent light gaverist to monlinear optics,which now plays an important role inmany areas of science and technology.One of the first applicationsof nonlinear optics was the multi-wave mixi... L Deng,EW Hagl...
We have presented a semiclassical analysis of four-wave mixing in a system of two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode self-consistent classical electromagnetic field in the presence of a weak probe field. The relevant response functions for the probe wave as well as for the field generate...
Starting from a second-quantized Hamiltonian of many-particle systems, we derive the Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation in momentum space, which is suitable for studying the multi-wave mixing processes of coherent matter waves. The coupling equations are then applied to study ideal four-wave mixing (...
The nonlinear optical response (wave-mixing) was discovered in 1961 [1] right after the invention of the laser [2]. Since then this field has experienced a paramount growth and nowadays is exploited in a manifold of optical methods, with applications in almost all domains of science. Nonlinear...
Keywords: four-wave mixing; optical parametric amplification Graphical Abstract1. Introduction Nonlinear optical effects have been investigated in various media for broadband light amplification. In particular, the optical parametric amplification via the second-order nonlinearity of a birefringent crystal has...
10 Three and Four Wave MixingOne characteristic of nonlinear processes in quantum optics is the occurrenceof products of interaction energies with complex conjugates of these energies,e.g., in the third-order product VV ∗ V. This is built into the concept of therotating-wave approximation, ...
(Dated: March 26, 2008)We show that a simple scheme based on nondegenerate four-wave mixing in a hot atomic vaporbehaves like a near-perfect phase-insensitive optical amplifier, which can generate bright twin beamswith a measured quantum noise reduction in the intensity difference of more than...
the second-harmonic wave is relatively weak compared with the fundamental wave, such that the comb formation is still dominated by four-wave mixing due to the third-order Kerr effect. The role of the second-order nonlinearity is to induce phase shifts around the fundamental frequency (through se...
