High efficiency Raman amplification of waves with conformed profiles

Ildar A. Begishev, I. A. Kulagin, T. Usmanov

In the case of the scattering Raman amplification of light beams in a field of powerful ultrashort pulses, the back influence of the amplified radiation on the fundamental wave may be significant. Moreover, properties of the media, such as a population of atomic states, may significantly change. That leads to amplitude-phase modulation of the fundamental pulse owing to change of direction of intensity exchange in the pulse.1 As a result, the bond between the fundamental and Stokes waves becomes weaker, that results in a decrease in the frequency conversion efficiency. For spatial inhomogeneous beams this effect is different in various beam sections.

Influence of the scattering matrix elements on the gain of Stokes and anti-Stokes components in the nonstationary regime

I. A. Kulagin, Timurbek Usmanov

The influence of the scattering matrix elements that are responsible for the amplification of the Stokes and anti-Stokes components on the process of stimulated Raman scattering in the essentially nonstationary regime is analyzed. It is demonstrated that the optimum proportion between the scattering matrix elements, which maximizes the anti-Stokes component, is determined by the ratio between the optical frequencies of the components and the initial proportion between the intensities of the pump and initiating pulses. In the case of the optimum proportion between the scattering matrix elements, the variation in the excitation of a medium compensates the self-induced modulation of gain, and the efficiency of converting the radiation energy into the Stokes and anti-Stokes components increases substantially.

Transient Anti-Stokes Stimulated Raman Scattering: the Possibility of Observing Quantum Macroscopic Fluctuations

S. Ya. Kilin

It is shown that transient anti-Stokes stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) acts as a vacuum field fluctuations amplifier at Stokes frequency, the fluctuations being amplified up to macroscopic values. This makes their investigation possible by studying macroscopic energy fluctuations of transient SRS anti-Stokes pulses. The proposed theory also gives a quantitative description of angular distribution of self-generated anti-Stokes emission around the exact phase-matching angle recently observed by Duncan et al. ( Opt. Lett. , 11 (1986) 803) in the transient regime.
