description | We propose to use frequency-selective dissipative coupling to reduce the heat generated by coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) reversed cycles in active Raman media with phase mismatch. This is accomplished using a coupled-waveguide structure, which includes the active Raman waveguide (RW), where the Stokes signal undergoes amplification via stimulated Stokes Raman scattering (SSRS), and a dissipative waveguide (DW), which is tuned to the anti-Stokes wavelength so as to evacuate the corresponding anti-Stokes photons from the RW by coupling. The DW introduces optical loss that partially offsets the growth of the anti-Stokes signal in the RW and hence suppress the reversed CARS cycles that would otherwise result into heat generation in the RW. It is shown that the frequency-selective dissipative coupling provided by the DW can reduce the heat in active Raman media by a very factor of up to 5 when the CARS phase mismatch is compensated for by the optimum level of coupling between the RW and the DW. |
