We present a scheme for amplifying an extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) seed isolated attosecond pulse via stimulated Raman scattering of a pulse-train pump. At sufficient seed and pump intensity, the amplification is nonlinear, and the amplitude…
We investigate the arrival statistics of Stokes (S) and anti-Stokes (aS) Raman photons generated in diamond membranes. Strong quantum correlations between the S and aS signals are observed, which implies that the two processes share the…
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.…
Laser beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) provide an additional degree of freedom and have found wide applications ranging from optical communications and optical manipulation to quantum information. The efficient generation and…
We theoretically study and experimentally demonstrate controlled generation of spatial modes of light via stimulated parametric downconversion (StimPDC) by transferring the spatial structure of a pump beam to the stimulated idler beam. We…
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) has played an increasingly pivotal role in chemistry and photonics. Recently, understanding of light-molecule interaction during SRS was brought to a new quantitative level through the introduction of…
The process in which Raman scattering produces correlated Stokes and anti-Stokes radiation is known as Stokes--anti-Stokes (SaS) scattering. It has been shown recently that this process can generate entangled photon pairs, making it a…
We investigate the spatial beam dynamics inside a multimode graded-index fiber under Raman amplification by adopting a semi-analytical variational approach. The variational analysis provides us with four coupled ordinary differential…
Raman scattering spectroscopy is widely used as an analytical technique in various fields, but its measurement process tends to be slow due to the low scattering cross-section. In the last decade, various broadband coherent Raman scattering…
Nonclassicality is studied through a quasidistribution of phases for the Raman process under both weak and strong pump conditions. In the former case, the solution is applicable to both resonant and off-resonant Raman processes, while…
Backward stimulated Raman scattering is a three-wave coupling instability requiring the matching of an incoming pump light wave to a scattered light wave and electron plasma wave. It can be harmful to laser-driven inertial confinement…
Nonlinear optical microscopy techniques have emerged as a set of successful tools for biological imaging. Stimulated emission microscopy belongs to a small subset of pump-probe techniques which can image non-fluorescent samples without…
We propose and theoretically analyze a new vibrational spectroscopy, termed electron- and light-induced stimulated Raman (ELISR) scattering, that combines the high spatial resolution of electron microscopy with the molecular sensitivity of…
Ultrafast characterization and control of many-body interactions and elementary excitations are critical to understanding and manipulating emergent phenomena in strongly correlated systems. In particular, spin interaction plays an important…

We investigate the prospects of using two-mode intensity squeezed twin-beams, generated in Rb vapor, to improve the sensitivity of spectroscopic measurements by engaging two-photon Raman transitions. As a proof of principle demonstration,…
We demonstrate the acquisition of stimulated Raman scattering spectra with the use of a single femtosecond pulse. High resolution vibrational spectra are obtained by shifting the phase of a narrow band of frequencies in the broadband input…
Nonlinear optical processes are used in biological microscopy to surpass the diffraction limit on resolution, image deeper into brain tissues, and identify biomolecules without exogenous labels. These techniques typically require high…
We propose an elegant scheme towards phase locking of two independent degenerate coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) processes. The optical implementation involves a modified Mach-Zehnder interferometer that is utilized to transfer…
