Exact formulas are obtained for the amplitudes of light waves involved in four-wave-mixing cascades near the zero-dispersion frequency of a fiber. The cascade that is initiated by two strong pump waves is phase insensitive, whereas the cascade that is initiated by two strong pump waves and a weak signal wave is phase sensitive. In both cascades, the number of waves that have significant power increases with distance.

Multiple coherent radiations are achieved in a water-3-aminopropanol (3AP) mixed solution through cascaded four-wave mixing (C-FWM) and cascaded Stokes (C-Stokes) processes, both driven by stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in this work. The O-H vibration peak from water is replaced by the emergence of the -NH symmetric stretching Raman peaks from 3AP, with intensity approaching that of the -CH symmetric stretching peak. The dual-wavelength SRS signals for the -NH and -CH stretching vibrations have a relatively small frequency interval of about 400 cm (16 nm).

High-order wave mixing in solid-state platforms gather increasing importance due to the development of advanced lasers and integrated photonic circuit for both classical and quantum information. However, the high-order wave mixing is generally inefficient in solids under weak pump. Here, we observed the presence of phase matching of five-wave mixing (5WM) propagating in a zinc oxide (ZnO) microwire.

The fiber system consists of a short standard step-index silica fiber and a microfiber tapered from it. When this system is pumped with a 130 ps laser at 1040 nm, multiple new wavelengths in the UV (340-370 nm) and green (507-547 nm) bands arise through four-wave mixing (FWM)/sum-frequency generation (SFG) from the pump and its Raman signals.

By tuning the group delay dispersion (GDD) and fourth-order dispersion (FOD) terms, we control the CFWM phase matching and demonstrate an output bandwidth tuning of over 3.3×.
