Abstract
It is demonstrated that a collinear scheme of nonlinear-optical wave mixing due to a second-order nonlinearity can be implemented in an isotropic gyro tropic medium (the Koroteev problem of chiral nonlinear optics) through the use of waveguide modes. The efficiency of wave mixing can be considerably improved in such a scheme when material dispersion of a medium is partially or completely offset by a controllable dispersion of waveguide modes.
