Selective excitation of four-wave mixing by helicity in gated graphene

Abstract

Gapless Dirac fermions in monolayer graphene give rise to an abundance of peculiar physical properties, including exceptional broadband nonlinear optical responses. By tuning the chemical potential, stacking order, and photonic structures, the effective modulation of nonlinear optical phenomena in graphene has been demonstrated in recent years. Here, we demonstrate that optical helicity can be used as an extra tuning knob for four-wave mixing in gated graphene. Our results reveal the helicity selection rule for four-wave mixing in monolayer graphene, revealing nearly perfect circular polarization. Corresponding theoretical interpretations of the helicity selection rule that are also applicable to other nonlinear optical processes and materials are presented.
