Experimental studies of Degenerate four-wave mixing (DFWM) in iodine vapor at atmospheric pressure
and 0℃ and 25℃ are reported. The Laser-induced grating (LIG) studies are carried out by generating the
thermal grating using a pulsed, narrow bandwidth, dye laser .A new image processing system for detecting
forward DFWM spectroscopy on iodine vapor is reported. This system is composed of CCD camera,
imaging processing card and the related software. With the help of the detecting system, phase matching
can be easily achieved in the optical arrangement by crossing the two pumps and the probe as diagonals
linking opposite corners of a rectangular box ,and providing a way to position the PhotoMultiplier Tube
(PMT) . Also it is practical to know the effect of the pointing stability on the optical path by monitoring
facula changing with the laser beam pointing and disturbs of the environment. Finally the effects of
Photostability of dye laser on the ration of signal to noise in DFWM using forward geometries have been
investigated in iodine vapor. This system makes it feasible that the potential application of FG-DFWM is
used as a diagnostic tool in combustion research and environment monitoring.
