Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear Optical Phase Conjugation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review and explore the field, provide a historical perspective, analyze several of the nonlinear interactions useful for the generation of phase-conjugate replicas, and conclude with a brief survey of potential applications and suitable nonlinear media.
Journal ArticleDOI
A theoretical and experimental investigation of the modes of optical resonators with phase-conjugate mirrors
TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of resonator properties for a cavity bounded by a phase conjugate mirror, which is generated by a degenerate four-wave nonlinear optical interaction, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of signal detuning on phase conjugation
Tao-yi Fu,Murray Sargent +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the degenerate three-wave and four-wave phase conjugation was generalized to include signal-pump detuning and the theory is an extension of grating-dip spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nearly degenerate four-wave mixing enhanced by the ac Stark effect
Donald J. Harter,Robert W. Boyd +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a model was developed to describe nondegenerate four-wave mixing in a medium characterized by a single strong atomic resonance, and the nonlinear response was calculated using the density-matrix formalism, and propagation effects were included by solving coupled-wave equations.

M. Ducloy,D. Bloch +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the angular dependence of phase-conjugate emission via resonant degenerate four-wave mixing (FWM) in Doppler-broadened gas media was analyzed.

Amplified reflection, phase conjugation, and oscillation in degenerate four-wave mixing
Amnon Yariv,David M. Pepper +1 more
TL;DR: A number of new optical effects that result from degenerate four-wave mixing in transparent optical media are proposed and analyzed and are relevant to time-reversed (phase-conjugated) propagation as well as to a new mode of parametric oscillation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degenerate four-wave mixing in absorbing media.
TL;DR: Degenerate four-wave mixing in a two-level absorbing (or amplifying) system is treated, leading to a quantitative description of amplified reflection, oscillation, and phase conjugation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of amplified reflection by degenerate four-wave mixing in atomic sodium vapor.
TL;DR: This Letter is the first report of the observation of amplified reflection and self-oscillation produced by degenerate optical four-wave mixing by using a resonantly enhanced Kerr nonlinearity in atomic sodium vapor.

Journal ArticleDOI
Narrow optical bandpass filter via nearly degenerate four-wave mixing.
TL;DR: It is shown that a nearly degenerate four-wave mixing process is capable of yielding a real-time optical bandpass filter that has a large field of view and is able to provide an amplified bandpass.
