  • Abstract
    Stimulated four-photon mixing has been observed in silica-fiber waveguides. Phase matching is achieved by using the dispersion of the waveguide modes to compensate for bulk dispersion. The coherence lengths can be greater than 10 m and the gains more than double the usual Raman gain.
