Extra resonances in time-domain four-wave mixing.
We show that extra resonances, such as those caused in frequency-domain nonlinear wave mixing by pure dephasing or laser fluctuations, can also be induced by operation in the time domain. These pulse-length-induced extra resonances arise in transient-grating experiments when the laser pulses are short enough that a steady state cannot be achieved during the excitation process. We show theoretic...
متن کاملStochastic field-induced nonlocal resonances in four-wave mixing
We explore theoretically the signal generated by a fluctuating radiation field via a four-wave mixing process in an atomic vapor undergoing Markovian dephasing collisions. We consider specifically a broadband laser field well detuned from the atomic resonance and calculate the signal generated using counterpropagating pump fields as a function of the time delay of the incident probe field. We a...
متن کاملDistributed measurement of chromatic dispersion by four-wave mixing and Brillouin optical-time-domain analysis.
A new nondestructive method for measuring the spatial distribution of chromatic dispersion along an optical fiber is presented. It is based on using Brillouin optical time-domain analysis to probe the power distribution of the four-wave mixing generated by two continuous-wave lasers. The results obtained prove that this new method is capable of providing better performance than comparable techn...
متن کاملCoherent Fano resonances in a plasmonic nanocluster enhance optical four-wave mixing.
Plasmonic nanoclusters, an ordered assembly of coupled metallic nanoparticles, support unique spectral features known as Fano resonances due to the coupling between their subradiant and superradiant plasmon modes. Within the Fano resonance, absorption is significantly enhanced, giving rise to highly localized, intense near fields with the potential to enhance nonlinear optical processes. Here, ...
متن کاملHigh-contrast coherent population trapping resonances using four-wave mixing in 87Rb.
We demonstrate very high-contrast coherent population trapping(1) (CPT) resonances by using four-wave mixing in (87)Rb atoms. In the experiment, we take advantage of the spectral overlap between F=2-->F(?) and F=3-->F(?) optical resonances on the D1 line of (87)Rb and (85)Rb atoms, respectively, to eliminate the DC-light background from the CPT resonance signal. We observe a CPT resonance with ...
