Guided-light two-wave-mixing on a spherical surface

A novel guided structure is proposed which is aimed at developing integrated all-optical signal processors exploiting two wave mixing interactions. The structure is based on the whispering propagation on a hemispherical glass substrate and contains a dye-doped photoresist film as the test nonlinear...

Zusammenfassung:	A novel guided structure is proposed which is aimed at developing integrated all-optical signal processors exploiting two wave mixing interactions. The structure is based on the whispering propagation on a hemispherical glass substrate and contains a dye-doped photoresist film as the test nonlinear material. Its functionality was demonstrated successfully with two wave mixing experiments that were performed with CW light at 1321 nm and with a probe beam at 647 nm.
