Nondegenerate four-wave mixing in a homogeneously broadened two-level system with saturating pump waves

TL;DR: In this paper, the formulation of phase conjugation via nondegenerate four-wave mixing in a homogeneously broadened resonant medium is generalized to include saturating pump waves, and an ultrahigh-Q optical filter is predicted, showing both gain and a bandwidth less than the homogeneous linewidth of the atom.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Real-Time Image Processing Using A Self-Pumped Phase Conjugate Mirror

TL;DR: In this article, a real-time "exclusive or" operation with an interferometer using a self-pumped phase conjugate mirror is described. And the results of image subtraction, intensity inversion and image differentiation are shown.

Single contact tailored gain chirped arrays of diode lasers for supermode control with single-lobed farfield patterns

TL;DR: In this paper, an array of nonuniform semiconductor diode lasers with supermode control for achieving a single-lobed farfield pattern is described, which is accomplished by spatially segregating the fundamental supermode from the other supermodes, tailoring the spatial gain profile as as to favor the fundamental SO, and sufficiently increasing the intechannel coupling so as to bring about single-LOF operation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective low‐temperature mass transport in InGaAsP/InP lasers

TL;DR: In this paper, a low-temperature mass transport process in InP was investigated and achieved at 570-600 °C in a closed ampoule using iodine or InI as a catalytic transporting agent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Some Consequences of Pump Coherence on Energy Exchange in Nonlinear Optical Processes

TL;DR: In this paper, a closed hierarchy of equations for the moments of the fields is given, which in turn is used for evaluating the average number of photons per mode and the relative variance as functions of time.
