  • Abstract
    Highly efficient nondegenerate forward four-wave mixing in a singlemode fibre was achieved by suppressing the stimulated Brillouin scattering of pump light. A conversion efficiency of -4.6 dB, including a fibre loss of 5.3 dB, was obtained at a pump power of +17 dBm with an associated internal parametric gain of 3.3 dB.
