Abstract
We present an analysis of optical phase conjugation with frequency doubling in terms of nondegenerate six-wave mixing fifth-order nonlinear susceptibility. We show how the Bragg phase-matching condition is achieved at small angles. The process under picosecond-pulse conditions in a polydiacetylene solution pumped at two-photon resonance and probed at one-photon resonance is experimentally demonstrated. Results are discussed in terms of a one-dimensional quantum three-level system. The proximity of one- and two-photon resonance in conjugated polymers makes these polymers efficient nonlinear-optical materials for this original application. The experiment permits artifact-free measurement of the two-photon state recovery time of the red form of polydiacetylene.
