Multicolor solitons due to four-wave mixing
نویسندگان
چکیده
The structure and stability of different types of multicolor optical spatial solitary waves created by interaction of light at a central frequency with two sideband waves both through cross-phase modulation and parametric four-wave mixing is presented. It is shown that a novel type of three-color spatial soliton appears above a power threshold when parametric coupling generates an instability of two-frequency solitary waves. @S1063-651X~98!04303-7#

Generation of multicolor vector Kerr solitons by cross-phase modulation, four-wave mixing, and stimulated Raman scattering.
We numerically and experimentally show the existence of multicolor vector spatial solitons in a Kerr planar waveguide through the combined effects of cross-phase modulation, four-wave mixing, and stimulated Raman scattering. Mutual spatial guiding of the Raman-Stokes, anti-Stokes, and pump waves is achieved in the high-conversion regime mainly by cross-phase modulation and phase-matched four-wa...
متن کاملGeneration of μJ multicolor femtosecond laser pulses using cascaded four-wave mixing
Μulticolor femtosecond pulses were simultaneously obtained by a cascaded FWM process in fused silica glass. The sideband spectra were tunable by changing the crossing angle of the two input beams. Frequency up-shift and down-shift pulses with energies as high as 1 μJ, durations of 45 fs, nearly diffraction limited Gaussian spatial profiles, and power stability smaller than 2% RMS of the generat...
متن کاملFour-wave mixing dipole soliton in laser-induced atomic gratings.
We demonstrate a novel type of stable multicomponent vector solitons consisting of two perpendicular four-wave mixing (FWM) dipole components induced by electromagnetically induced gratings. We analyze the formation and steering of the steady dipole solitons and their dynamical (energy transfer) effects. The dipole-mode solitons of two FWM processes have horizontal and vertical orientations, re...
متن کاملFour-wave mixing of linear waves and solitons in fibers with higher-order dispersion.
We derive phase-matching conditions for four-wave mixing between solitons and linear waves in optical fibers with arbitrary dispersion and demonstrate resonant excitation of new spectral components via this process.
متن کاملHigh-Energy, Multicolor Femtosecond Pulses from the Deep Ultraviolet to the Near Infrared Generated in a Hydrogen-Filled Gas Cell and Hollow Fiber
We investigate four-wave mixing in hydrogen gas using a gas cell and a hollow fiber for the generation of high-energy, multicolor femtosecond (fs) optical pulses. Both a hydrogen-filled gas cell and hollow fiber lead to the generation of multicolor fs pulses in a broad spectral range from the deep ultraviolet to the near infrared. However, there is a difference in the energy distribution of the...
