Stimulated Raman scattering of a high-Q liquid-hydrogen droplet in the ultraviolet region.

چکیده
We show that a liquid-hydrogen droplet can achieve high- Q values that exceed 10(9) for whispering-gallery modes in the ultraviolet. We show also that pumping high- Q liquid-hydrogen droplets with ultraviolet laser radiation generates many vibrational and rotational Raman sidebands that cover a broad spectral range from the ultraviolet to the near infrared.

Stimulated thermal scattering induced by two-photon absorption and experimental observation of genuine stimulated brillouin scattering in the near-ultraviolet region
Part of the experimental measurements of the frequency shift and the phase-conjugation (PC) fidelity gained from previous studies of stimulated scattering (SS) of nanosecond ( 5 ~ 10 ns ) near-ultraviolet (UV) ( 193 ~ 351 nm λ = ) laser pulses in liquids (hexane, heptane, and others) are found to disagree with the theory of SS, which takes into account only the linear (single-photon) light abso...
متن کاملGeneration of coherent and tunable ultraviolet radiation by scattering processes
Tunable, coherent radiation in the ultraviolet region has been generated by stimulated Raman scattering, by anti-Stokes Raman lasers, and by frequency-mixing processes based on nonlinear polarizabilities of atomic and molecular systems. Present progress in the development of these laser-driven sources is reviewed, with examples of available systems and their characteristics. Applications in spe...
متن کامل16 - , um generation by C 0 2 - pumped rotational Raman scattering in H 2
In 1976 Byer proposed using stimulated rotational Raman scattering in hydrogen gas as an efficient method of frequency conversion in the infrared.' In particular, it was noted that stimulated Raman scattering in para-H 2 gas with a CO2 laser pump generates 16-gm radiation, which is of potential use for UF 6 isotope enrichment. It was subsequently learned that others have also suggested stimulat...
متن کاملSurface Enhanced Raman Scattering of Crystal Violet with Low Concentrations Using Self-Assembled Silver and Gold-Silver Core-Shell Nanoparticles
The active substrates in surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy were prepared through self-assembly of nanoparticles on functionalized glasses. Colloidal silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were prepared chemically in two different sizes by reduction of AgNO3 using trisodium citrate and sodium borohydride. Gold–silver core–shell nanoparticles were also prepared to compare between the o...
متن کاملStimulated Raman scattering in micrometer-sized droplets: time-resolved measurements.
Time-resolved measurements of elastic scattering and stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in micrometer-sized water and carbon tetrachloride droplets irradiated with a pulsed, frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser (pulse width 8 nsec, lambda = 532 nm, peak intensity ~1 GW cm(-2)) are reported. Elastic scattering of light is instantaneous within our measurement error, estimated to be <+/-3 nsec. On the ot...
