Pump–probe collision in optical fibers: four-wave-mixing induced frequency jump

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

An investigation is made of ultrafast pump–probe pulse collisions near the zero-dispersion wavelength in an optical single-mode fiber. A steplike probe frequency shift is observed when the pump power is gradually increased. The magnitude of this frequency jump is shown to depend on the phase difference between the pulses. This new effect is investigated numerically and experimentally and is attributed to four-wave mixing.
