Abstract

The two‐photon excitation of 4S1/2–7S1/2 transition of potassium atoms is studied. Several coherent emissions and processes are possible, such as parametric four‐wave (PFWM), parametric six‐wave (PSWM) mixing and competition with the stimulated hyper Raman (SHRS) and the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE). The radiations at the transitions 6P3/2,1/2−4S1/2, 6S1/2−4P3/2,1/2 and 5P3/2,1/2−4S1/2 are emitted only in the forward direction (indicating a parametric process), while the radiation at the transition 4P3/2,1/2−4S1/2 is emitted in the forward and in the backward direction, indicating an ASE process.
