Manley-Rowe photon balance: ΔΦ_1 = ΔΦ_2 = -ΔΦ_3 per 3-wave interaction step

Layer 1 — Physicsin the nonlinear-photonics subtree

Integral form of the Manley-Rowe 1956 relations. For a lossless χ^(2) 3-wave mixing interaction ω_1 + ω_2 = ω_3 between points z = 0 and z = L: ΔΦ_1 = ΔΦ_2 = -ΔΦ_3, where ΔΦ_k = ΔI_k/ℏω_k is the photon-flux change in wave k. Equivalent…
