Triple tailored nonlinear dispersion of dressed four- and six-wave mixing

We investigate the spectral signals and spatial images of a probe transmission signal, four-wave mixing (FWM), and six-wave mixing (SWM) under double dressing effects in an inverted Y-type system. Especially, we get the triple tailored nonlinear dispersion (about 60 MHz) of the dressed FWM and SWM through the interaction between electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) windows and the Kerr nonlinearity. Moreover, SWM and dressed FWM with narrow linewidth are obtained through the tailoring of the three EIT windows, which is much narrower than the EIT. In addition, we first elaborate the modulation effect from the self-Kerr coefficient of FWM on the spot. We also investigate the spatial characteristics (defocusing, shifting, and splitting) of FWM and SWM induced by tailored self-Kerr and cross-Kerr effects among the relative fields. Such spatial shifting, splitting induced by the tailored nonlinear dispersion can be used for a higher contrast and high speed switch as well as a high resolution router.
