Phase-sensitive nonlinear gain processes have been implemented as noise-reduced optical
amplifiers, which have the potential to achieve signal-to-noise ratios beyond the classical
limit. We experimentally demonstrate a novel phase-sensitive four-wave mixing amplification
process in a single atomic vapor cell with only two input frequencies and two input vacuum
modes. The amount of phase sensitivity depends on the power ratio between the inserted
probes as well as on the input frequency of the probes. We find that, for certain phase …
Phase-sensitive nonlinear gain processes have been implemented as noise-reduced optical amplifiers, which have the potential to achieve signal-to-noise ratios beyond the classical limit. We experimentally demonstrate a novel phase-sensitive four-wave mixing amplification process in a single atomic vapor cell with only two input frequencies and two input vacuum modes. The amount of phase sensitivity depends on the power ratio between the inserted probes as well as on the input frequency of the probes. We find that, for certain phase values, the intensity noise of an output mode is lower than that of its phase-insensitive counterpart.
