Single-shot parametric four-wave mixing in microdroplets

Abstract

A micrometer-sized droplet acts as a lens to enhance the internal intensity of the input laser. The liquid-air interface of the droplet also provides efficient feedback for the growth of nonlinear optical processes at specific wavelengths corresponding to the cavity modes, commonly referred to as morphology dependent resonances (MDRs), of the droplet. Multiple orders of stimulated scattering processes that are intrinsically phase matched, e.g., stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and stimulated librational scattering,1 can be observed in microdroplets with single laser shots.
