Coherent Control of Four-Wave Mixing' discusses the frequency, temporal and spatial domain interplays of four-wave mixing (FWM) processes induced by atomiccoherence in multi-level atomic systems. It covers topics in five major areas: the ultrafast FWM polarization beats due to interactions between multi-colorlaser beams and multi-level media; coexisting Raman-Rayleigh-Brillouin-enhanced polarization beats due to color-locking noisy field correlations; FWM processes with different kinds of dual-dressed schemes in ultra-thin, micrometer and long atomic cells; temporal and spatial interference between FWM and six-wave mixing (SWM) signals in multi-level electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT) media; spatial displacements and splitting of the probe and generated FWM beams, as well as the observations of gap soliton trains, vortex solitons, and stable multicomponent vector solitons in the FWM signals.The book is intended for scientists, researchers, advanced undergraduate and graduate students in Nonlinear Optics.Dr. Yanpeng Zhang is a professor and Zhiqiang Nie is a Ph.D. student at the Key Laboratory for Physical Electronics and Devices of the Ministry of Education, Xi'an Jiaotong University, China. Dr. Min Xiao is a professor of physics at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, U.S.A. An up-to-date book on control and interactions of FWM processes in the time, frequency and spatial domain New forms of presentation and illustrations such as time-spatial interference are presented in the book A comprehensive and systematical framework for control and interactions of FWM processes will be constructed in this book INDICE: Introduction of Controllable Four-Wave Mixing (FWM) Processes.
