Abstract

Highly efficient cascade frequency mixing signals are generated in a nearly degenerate intracavity four-wave mixing experiment in a GaAs/(GaAl)As semiconductor laser. This method allows a consistent quantitative determination of the third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility within the gain bandwidth of a semiconductor laser. The dependence of this susceptibility on light intensity reveals the contribution of the free-carrier plasma.
