Abstract
We show that, in a chi((2)) material, a backward injected signal beam under
goes an automatic pi phase shift in a phase-matched cascaded parametric int
eraction in the presence of a forward injected pump beam. This type of inte
raction, compared with the previously proposed copropagative cascaded param
etric interaction configurations, is shown to have more flexibility for sig
nal processing. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
