    Efficient sum-frequency mixing is achieved using autoionization-induced transparency. This method enhances third-order susceptibility while minimizing generated wave absorption, ideal for short-wavelength radiation generation.

    Area of Science:

    • Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics
    • Nonlinear Optics
    • Quantum Optics

    Background:

    • Sum-frequency mixing (SFM) is a nonlinear optical process used for generating new frequencies.
    • Linear absorption of generated waves can limit the efficiency of SFM.
    • Autoionizing resonances are typically associated with strong absorption.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To demonstrate efficient sum-frequency mixing (SFM) utilizing transparency induced by autoionization.
    • To reduce linear absorption of the generated wave in SFM.
    • To enhance the utility of SFM for short-wavelength radiation generation.

    Main Methods:

    • Tuning incident laser frequencies to the absorption minimum of an autoionizing resonance for the generated wave.
    • Leveraging the phenomenon of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in the context of autoionization.
