摘要
We theoretically study the propagation of light in a disordered medium with nonlinear scatterers. We especially focus on interference effects between reversed multiple scattering paths, which lead to weak localization and coherent backscattering. We show that, in the presence of weakly nonlinear scattering, constructive interferences exist in general between three different scattering amplitudes. This effect influences the nonlinear backscattering enhancement factor, which may thus exceed the linear barrier two.
