Coexisting Raman- and Rayleigh-Enhanced Four-Wave Mixing in Femtosecond Polarization Beats

Based on the polarization interference of Raman- and Rayleigh-enhanced four-wave mixing processes, heterodyne detection of the Raman, Rayleigh and coexisting Raman and Rayleigh femtosecond difference-frequency polarization beats is investigated in the cw and the three Markovian stochastic models, respectively. These two processes exhibit asymmetric and symmetric spectra, respectively, and the thermal effect in them can be suppressed by field-correlation method. Such studies of coexisting Raman- and Rayleigh-enhanced four-wave mixing processes can have important applications in coherence quantum control, and quantum information processing.     

Regenerative amplification of the central component of the Rayleigh line in liquid

It is shown that the Rayleigh scattering signal excited in liquid during four-wave mixing of radiation of diode laser whose frequency difference is tuned in the vicinity of small detunings is amplified in the active element of the probe laser.     

Four-wave mixing Rayleigh scattering spectroscopy of binary solutions

The concentration dynamics of the scattering spectral width in a number of binary solutions has been studied by four-wave mixing spectroscopy near the Rayleigh resonance. It is noted that, according to the classical concepts, a variation in the correlation length of fluctuations of the relative concentration of molecules in a solution plays a key role in the change in the spectral width. Some liquids exhibit nonmonotonic (hysteretic) concentration dependences of the Rayleigh linewidth.     

Four-wave mixing and biphoton generation in a two-level system

We find that in a two-level system there are two kinds of four-wave mixing processes which destructively contribute to the third-order nonlinear susceptibility. In a paired-photon generation scheme by using a single retroreflected pump beam, these two processes occur with definite time orders. The biphoton temporal correlation, which is measured with a back-to-back geometry in a laser-cooled two-level atomic ensemble, shows a damped Rabi oscillation and photon antibunching. Without suppressing the background of Rayleigh scattering, the upper limit of Cauchy criteria is estimated.     

Polarization interference of multi-wave mixing in a confined five-level system

We investigated the coexisting four-wave mixing, six-wave mixing and eight-wave mixing in ultra-thin, micrometer and long cells. Such multi-wave mixing (MWM) processes can be modified by the polarization interference. The degree of destructive interference of atomic polarizations can be controlled by the wave vector, dressing field and cell length. Specifically, the oscillation behavior of intensity and linewidth of MWM signal results from the destructive interference in ultra-thin cell. For a doubly-dressed four-wave mixing, the inner dressing field suppresses the destructive polarization interference in micrometer and long cells, induces resonance enhancement. However, the outer dressing field only enhances destructive interference.     

Competition between Dispersion and Absorption of Doubly-Dressed Four-Wave Mixing and Dressed Six-Wave Mixing

We study the competition between dispersion and absorption of doubly-dressed four-wave mixing （DDFWM） and dressed six-wave mixing. In the case of weak coupling fields limit, we find DDFWM signal is affected by destructive interference between four-wave mixing（FWM） and six-wave mixing as wen as constructive interference between FWM and eight-wave mixing. By analysing the difference between two kinds of doubly dressing mechanisms （parallel cascade and nested cascade） in this opening five-level system, we can further understand the generated high-order nonlinear optical signal dressed by multi-fields.     

Highly efficient four-wave mixing induced by quantum constructive interference in rubidium vapour

We demonstrate efficient four-wave mixing with an intensity conversion efficiency of nearly 100% in theory without considering the Doppler-broadening effect in a four-level double-Λ system of hot 87 Rb gas.The corresponding experimental value of about 73% was reported in our earlier work under the same conditions.This dramatic efficiency is critically dependent on the constructive interference between two four-wave mixing processes relevant to the internally generated four-wave mixing signal.

Four-wave mixing of optical and microwave fields

We demonstrate degenerate four-wave mixing involving both optical and microwave fields. This four-wave mixing process, with fields that differ in frequency by 5 orders of magnitude, results from stimulated Raman scattering of the optical field from an atomic ground-state Zeeman coherence in warm rubidium vapor, which is induced and maintained by the microwave field.
