Abstract
We extend the study on a four-wave mixing (FWM) scheme of contiuous-wave lasers in a hot rubidium vapor when the probe and coupling fields work in the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) regime while the pump and signal fields work in the two-photon Raman regime. Our experimental results show that the generated signal field is well contained in an EIT dip of the incident probe field as a result of efficient FWM. We find, in particular, that an optimal FWM process can only be attained when the coupling and pump fields are well matched in intensity. If the probe intensity is far beyond the EIT condition, however, the nonlinear efficiency of energy transfer from the probe field to the signal field will be greatly reduced.
