摘要：

We compare four-wave mixing in quantum degenerate gases of bosonic and fermionic atoms. Pie find that matter-wave gratings formed from either bosonic or fermionic atoms can in principle exhibit nearly identical Bragg scattering and four-wave mixing properties. This implies that effects such as coherent matter-wave amplification and superradiance can occur in degenerate Fermi gases. This effect is due to constructive many-particle quantum interferences. which in the boson case are interpreted as "Bose enhancement."
