Resolutions of degenerate four-wave mixing with forward and phase-conjugate configurations (FDFWM and PCDFWM) are investigated and compared theoretically and experimentally in hot rubidium (Rb) atomic vapor.The theoretical simulations indicate that PCDFWM is of much higher resolution than FDFWM.The resolution of PCDFWM is less dependent on Doppler broadening.The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical expectation.PCDFWM can resolve the hyperfine transitions and crossover resonances of 87 Rb which cannot be achieved by FDFWM.Additionally,with sample temperature increasing,the linewidth of FDFWM spectrum obviously broadens.In comparison,no obvious broadening can be observed in the PCDFWM spectrum.
