Mirrorless Oscillation Based on Resonantly Enhanced 4-Wave Mixing: All-Order Analytic Solutions

  • Conference paper
Frontiers of Laser Physics and Quantum Optics

Abstract

The phase transition to mirrorless oscillation in resonantly enhanced four-wave mixing in double-Λ systems are studied analytically for the ideal case of infinite lifetimes of ground-state coherences. The stationary susceptibilities are obtained in all orders of the generated fields and analytic solutions of the coupled nonlinear differential equations for the field amplitudes are derived and discussed.
