Abstract

Exact solutions to the equations describing general nonlinear four-wave mixing (including parametric mixing and three-wave sum-frequency generation) in optical fibers are presented. This complements our earlier research on four-photon parametric mixing in optical fibers [ Opt. Lett. 14, 87 ( 1989)].
