Abstract
By suppressing stimulated Brillouin scattering, strong four-wave mixing of two waves was obtained in a 400 m single-mode fibre. As the input was raised, newly generated waves were observed, in accordance with an exact analytical solution. With a maximum power of 230 mW for each input wave, 65% of the power was transferred into six newly generated waves.
