A coherent emission corresponding to the K(6P-4S) transition at 344 nm has been observed under two-wavelength excitation of potassium atomic vapor. The nonlinear origin of the signal is confirmed by divergence, forward-to-backward and temporal measurements. The analysis shows that a five-wave mixing process is responsible, involving additional Stokes waves, generated in the medium.
