Abstract
The recent advent of high-power, continuous- wave (CW) fiber sources and amplifiers1 has enabled the development of efficient optical nonlinearity-based sources,2 with potential applications in telecommunications, spectroscopy and medicine. Although most sources to date utilize a single nonlinear effect, such as stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) or four-wave mixing (FWM), multiple effects can be employed to obtain higher efficiencies. The resulting interplay carries not only practical importance to device performance, but is of physical interest.
