Six-wave interaction in multimode waveguides with Kerr nonlinearity with allowance for the Gaussian structure of pump waves by V.V. Ivakhnik, D.R. Kapizov, V.I. Nikonov

“…It is shown that in a waveguide with infinitely conducting walls, the half-width of the modulus of the point spread function of a six-wave radiation converter is completely determined by the transverse size of the waveguide and weakly depends on the width of the Gaussian pump wave. In a parabolic-index profile waveguide, a decrease in the width of the Gaussian pump wave at the waveguide ends commonly leads to a monotonic decrease in the half-width of the point spread function modulus.…”
