Abstract
The polarization properties of backward-box, degenerate four-wave mixing from OH molecules are measured in a flame and compared with theory. Ratios of signal intensities for different laser polarizations are shown to exceed perturbation-theory predictions for a closed two-level system when optical intensity gratings are formed in the interaction volume. These results are shown to be inconsistent with population-nonconserving effects and are attributed to scattering from quenching-induced thermal density gratings.
