Four-wave mixing and biphoton generation in a two-level system

S Du, J Wen, MH Rubin, GY Yin - Physical review letters, 2007 - APS
We find that in a two-level system there are two kinds of four-wave mixing processes which
destructively contribute to the third-order nonlinear susceptibility. In a paired-photon …
