We compare the efficiency of four-wave mixing in quantum degenerate gases of bosonic and fermionic atoms. It is shown that matter-wave gratings formed from either bosonic or fermionic atoms can in principle exhibit nearly identical…
We study the dynamics of a beam of fermions diffracted off a density grating formed by fermionic atoms in the limit of a large grating. An exact description of the system in terms of particle-hole operators is developed. We use a…
We study the process of four-wave mixing (4WM) in ultracold degenerate atomic gases. In particular we address the problem of 4WM in boson-fermion mixtures. We develop an approximate description of such processes using asymptotic analysis of…
We show that, Four wave mixing (FWM) processes of grating can be controlled by the presence of interactions with a quantum dot or a molecule made by coupled quantum dots. By choosing the appropriate level spacing for the quantum emitter,…
We discuss the relationship between bosonic stimulation, density fluctuations, and matter wave gratings. It is shown that enhanced stimulated scattering, matter wave amplification and atomic four-wave mixing are in principle possible for…
An atomic grating generated by a pulsed standing wave laser field is proposed to manipulate the superfluid state in a quantum degenerate gas of fermionic atoms. We show that in the presence of atomic Cooper pairs, the density oscillations…
We propose a multi-field-coupled atomic model that exhibits controllable $symmetric$ and $asymmetric$ evolution of significantly enhanced diffraction peaks in an opto-atomic grating at far-field regime. Such results are obtained by the…
Plasmonic enhancement of nonlinear light-matter interaction can be achieved via dedicated optimization of resonant plasmonic modes that are spectrally matched to the different wavelengths involved in the particular nonlinear optical…
We show that a simple scheme based on nondegenerate four-wave mixing in a hot atomic vapor behaves like a near-perfect phase-insensitive optical amplifier, which can generate bright twin beams with a measured quantum noise reduction in the…
We study topologically-protected four-wave mixing (FWM) interactions in a plasmonic metasurface consisting of a periodic array of nanoholes in a graphene sheet, which exhibits a wide topological bandgap at terahertz frequencies upon the…
We describe possibilities of spontaneous, degenerate four-wave mixing (FWM) processes in spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensates. Phase matching conditions (i.e., energy and momentum conservation laws) in such systems allow one to…
Nonlinear optics, especially frequency mixing, underpins modern optical technology and scientific exploration in quantum optics, materials and life sciences, and optical communications. Since nonlinear effects are weak, efficient frequency…
This work reports the experimental observation of a new type of four-wave mixing in which frequency-degenerate weak signal and idler waves are generated by mixing two pump waves of different frequencies in a normally dispersive birefringent…
Multiphoton processes in dense atomic vapors such as four-wave mixing or coherent blue light generation are typically viewed from single-atom perspective. Here we study the surprisingly important effect of phase matching near two-photon…
We present a theoretical analysis of the spatial shape of two symmetric signals of degenerate four-wave mixing induced by Gaussian beams in a thin sample of two-level atoms. Our calculations take into account the full spatial and spectral…
Efficiency is a critical factor limiting the applications of nonlinear plasmonic devices. We show by theory and experiments that high efficiency four-wave mixing (FWM) is achieved in nanometer size plasmonic hotspots, which open up…
We describe a method for non-degenerate four-wave mixing in a cold sample of 4-level atoms. An integral part of the four-wave mixing process is a collective instability which spontaneously generates a periodic density modulation in the cold…
Quantum-degenerate Fermi gases provide a remarkable opportunity to study strongly interacting fermions. In contrast to other Fermi systems, such as superconductors, neutron stars or the quark-gluon plasma, these gases have low densities and…
The optical nonlinear effects can provide different advanced electromagnetic functionalities, such as wave mixing and phase conjugation, which can be applied in a variety of new applications. However, these effects usually suffer from…
Four-wave mixing (4WM) is a known source of intense non-classical twin beams. It can be generated when an intense laser beam (the pump) and a weak laser beam (the seed) overlap in a $\chi^{(3)}$ medium (here cesium vapor), with frequencies…
