Nonperturbative analysis of Zeeman-coherence effects on resonant phase conjugation

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The effect of Zeeman coherence on phase conjugation is investigated in the saturation regime by using a nonperturbative analysis of resonant degenerate four-wave mixing with orthogonally polarized pump beams in a Λ-type homogeneously broadened three-level system. The dependence of the phase-conjugation efficiency on phase-interrupting collisions and pump imbalance is particularly studied. Significant phase-conjugate reflectivities can be obtained at pump intensities much below those required for a two-level system.
