Abstract

Axially propagating phase-matched parametric four-wave and six-wave mixing in pure sodium vapor is an easily documented process that may be confused with other resonant processes such as amplified spontaneous emission or stimulated hyper-Raman emission. We demonstrate and characterize the process in sodium vapor under near-resonant two-photon excitations.
