We experimentally demonstrate for the first time to our knowledge continuous-wave operation of saturablegain degenerate four-wave mixing by using a Nd:YVO(4) amplifier pumped by a cw Ti:sapphire laser. Such an amplifier exhibits continuous-wave two-pass gains as high as 200, and four-wave mixing reflectivities as high as 30% are obtained. A theoretical analysis is developed in the steady-state regime to explain the experimental results.
据我们所知,我们首次通过使用连续波钛宝石激光器泵浦的Nd:YVO₄放大器,实验证明了饱和增益简并四波混频的连续波运转。这种放大器展现出高达200的连续波双程增益,并且获得了高达30%的四波混频反射率。在稳态条件下进行了理论分析以解释实验结果。
