Abstract
Four-wave mixing (FWM) in semiconductor laser amplifiers (SLA) is presently a subject of intensive theoretical and experimental investigations. The high interest in this phenomenon is due to its potential applications, for example: wavelength conversion [1], compensation of signal distortions by mid-span phase conjugation [2] and demultiplexing of high bit rate data signals [3]. Moreover FWM is also of interest for spectroscopic investigations [4]. FWM experiments with detunings up to 4.3 THz [5] or even 5 THz [6] were reported recently.
