Due to its particular geometry, stimulated Raman side-scattering (SRSS) drives scattered light emission at non-conventional directions, leading to scarce and complex experimental observations. Direct-irradiation campaigns at the SG-II UP…
Stimulated Raman scattering is a well-known nonlinear process that can be harnessed to produce optical gain in a wide variety of media. This effect has been used to produce the first silicon-based lasers and high-gain amplifiers.…
Raman scattering is the inelastic process where photons bounce off molecules, losing energy and becoming red-shifted. This weak effect is unique to each molecular species, making it an essential tool in e.g. spectroscopy and label-free…
In the shock-ignition inertial confinement fusion scheme, high-intensity lasers propagate through an inhomogeneous coronal plasma, driving a shock designed to cause fuel ignition. During the high-intensity ignitor laser pulse, SRS…
The physical processes associated with propagation of a high-power (power > critical power for self-focusing) laser beam in water include nonlinear focusing, stimulated Raman scattering (SRS), optical breakdown and plasma formation. The…
Interaction of a high intensity short laser pulse with near-critical plasmas allows to achieve extremely high coupling efficiency and transfer laser energy to energetic ions. One dimensional Particle-In-Cell (PIC) simulations are considered…
The "Impulsive Stimulated Raman Scattering" (ISRS), is generally performed using ultrashort laser pulses. It shifts the frequency of the laser beam without any change of the wave surfaces and any appearance of extra lines. ISRS works with…
We revisit laser intensity noise in the context of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS), which has recently proved to be a key technique to provide label free images of chemical bonds in biological and medical samples. Contrary to most…
An accurate, closed-form expression evaluating the nonlinear interference (NLI) power in coherent optical transmission systems in the presence of inter-channel stimulated Raman scattering (ISRS) is derived. The analytical result enables a…
The coupling evolutions of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and Raman rescattering (re-SRS) are studied under the parameter conditions of relevance to the gas-filled hohlraum experiments at the National Ignition Facility by a nonenveloped…
We present the first experimental evidence of stimulated Raman re-scattering of a laser in plasma: The scattered light produced by the Raman instability is intense enough to scatter again through the same instability. Although never…
We report on experimental realization of impulsive rotational Raman scattering from neutral nitrogen molecules in a femtosecond laser filament using an intense self-induced white-light seeding "air laser" generated during the filamentation…
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in plasma in the degenerate regime is studied theoretically and numerically. Different from normal SRS with the non-degenerate eigen electrostatic mode excited, the degenerate SRS is developed at plasma…
Raman backscattered radiation of intense laser pulses in plasma is investigated for a wide range of intensities relevant to laser wakefield acceleration. The weakly nonlinear dispersion relation for Raman backscattering predicts an…
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) represents a powerful tool for accessing the vibrational properties of molecular compounds or solid state systems. From a spectroscopic perspective, SRS is able to capture Raman spectra free from incoherent…
The range of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) frequencies covers a domain which at the low end abuts half the laser frequency, omega_0 / 2, according to the simplest SRS theories, corresponding to scatter from electron densities near 1/4…
Backward stimulated Raman scattering in gases provides a promising route to compression and amplification of a Stokes seed-pulse by counter-propagating against a pump-pulse, as has been already demonstrated in various platforms, mainly in…
We report results and modelling of an experiment performed at the TAW Vulcan laser facility, aimed at investigating laser-plasma interaction in conditions which are of interest for the Shock Ignition scheme to Inertial Confinement Fusion,…
The Impulsive Stimulated Raman Scattering (ISRS) is a parametric light-matter interaction which shifts the frequencies of two ultrashort laser light pulses by a non-quantified transfer of energy. As ISRS has no threshold, the laser pulses…
For current state-of-the-art terawatt lasers, the primary laser scattering mechanisms in plasma include Forward Raman Scattering (FRS), excitation of plasma waves, and the self-modulational instability (SMI). Using 2D PIC simulations, we…
