Effect of photon statistics on phase conjugation by four-wave mixing.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effects of fluctuation associated with chaotic fields on degenerate four-wave mixing are studied. The chaotic field phase conjugates more efficiently than the single-mode coherent light for both weak and strong fields, the reflectivity being enhanced by a factor of 2 in the former case. The fluctuations are also shown to have a significant effect on reflectivity as a function of detuning.

Squeezed states produced by modulation interaction and phase conjugation in fibers
Number-state expansions are derived for the squeezed states produced by four-wave mixing (modulation interaction and phase conjugation) in fibers. These expansions are valid for arbitrary pump-induced coupling and dispersion-induced mismatch coefficients. To illustrate their use, formulas are derived for the associated fieldquadrature and photon-number variances and correlations.
متن کامل2k-Grating-assisted self-pumped phase conjugation: theoretical and experimental studies
We investigated 2k-grating-assisted self-pumped phase conjugation in photorefractive Ce:BaTiO3 crystals. The phase-conjugation process involves a combination of four-wave mixing and stimulated photorefractive backscattering. An approximation involving separate interaction regions is used to theoretically calculate the reflectivity of phase conjugation as a function of the coupling strength of f...

متن کاملNarrow-band optical filter through phase conjugation by nondegenerate four-wave mixing in sodium vapor.
An ultrahigh-Q, tunable optical filter with a FWHM bandwidth of 41 MHz is demonstrated. The filtering is produced by nondegenerate phase conjugation through four-wave mixing in atomic-sodium vapor. The filter is observed to have a maximum quantum efficiency of 4 x 10(-3). However, degenerate phase-conjugation experiments in sodium suggest that a quantum efficiency of greater than unity can be a...
متن کاملNon-frequency-shifted, high-fidelity phase conjugation with aberrated pump waves by Brillouin-enhanced four-wave mixing.
The results of an experimental investigation of a new geometry for producing phase conjugation by Brillouin-enhanced four-wave mixing are presented. In this geometry, the four-wave mixing medium is carbon disulfide, and the backward-going pump wave is created from the transmitted forward-going pump wave by stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in glycerol. The two pump waves are hence phase con...
