Chirp reversal of picosecond light pulses in parametric amplification in quadratically nonlinear media
A real-time chirp reversal of picosecond light pulses has been observed during three-wave parametric amplification in a CD A crystal. A phase conjugation of the time-dependent spectral components of optical signals can be achieved over an exceedingly broad frequency band in media having a second-order nonlinear susceptibility. Chirp reversal has been achieved in a spectral band up to 200 cm-1 at an energy gain ~ 104 and at a signal output power of 0.1 GW.
