Abstract

We report the competition between the spontaneous parametric four-wave mixing and second- or fourth-order fluorescence (FL) signals in Pr3+:Y2SiO5 crystal. By changing the powers of controlling fields and blocking different fields, the competitive two signals can be identified through the dressing effect. Meanwhile, the delay of fourth-order FL in the time domain results from splitting the energy level. Such results can find potential applications in optical information storage and processing on a photonic chip.
