长光纤中拉曼光子时间模式的影响因素研究

在有损耗、色散和自相位调制的影响下,通过分段分析法计算了自发拉曼散射光子的二阶相关函数,研究了长光纤中脉冲光泵浦下自发拉曼散射的时间模式特性。研究结果表明：在无色散和自相位调制的情况下,自发拉曼散射光子的二阶相关函数不受泵浦光损耗的影响,仅由泵浦光脉宽和拉曼光子相干时间之间的比值决定,与自发参量下转换光子的二阶相关函数具有相同的表达式;在有色散和自相位调制的情况下,由色散和自相位调制共同引起的泵浦光脉宽变化,以及泵浦光和拉曼光子间色散致走离,使拉曼光子的时间模式发生改变。自发拉曼散射光子的二阶相关函数取决于光纤损耗系数、色散参数和初始泵浦光脉宽等因素,不再与自发参量下的转换光子相同。

Stimulated Raman scattering of pre-gaussian light

The quantum theory of a forward Stokes generation by means of stimulated Raman scattering is considered in the case of a pre-gaussian pump composed by two and three telegraphs. As for the case of a colored chaotic pump the mean Stokes intensity is found to be enhanced over that resulting from a coherent pump in both transient and steady-state limits. In the limit that the pre-gaussian bandwidth becomes large, the mean Stokes intensity also becomes identical with that resulting from a coherent pump.     

A simple analytic model for noise shaping by an optical fiber Raman generator

An analytic model for first Stokes–Raman generation in optical fiber is used to evaluate the relative importance of quantum initiation noise and amplified classical pump noise in recent experiments on noise shaping. The model accounts for pump depletion and for fluctuations arising from the spontaneous generation of the first Stokes pulse, but not for scattering into higher-order Stokes pulses. The model reproduces the qualitative features of the measured first Stokes pulse energy statistics using realistic parameter values.     

Observation of the Rabi oscillation of light driven by an atomic spin wave

Coherent conversion between a Raman pump field and its Stokes field is observed in a Raman process with a strong atomic spin wave initially prepared by another Raman process operated in the stimulated emission regime. The oscillatory behavior resembles the Rabi oscillation in atomic population in a two-level atomic system driven by a strong light field. The Rabi-like oscillation frequency is found to be related to the strength of the prebuilt atomic spin wave. High conversion efficiency of 40% from the Raman pump field to the Stokes field is recorded and it is independent of the input Raman pump field. This process can act as a photon frequency multiplexer and may find wide applications in quantum information science.     

The buildup of stimulated Raman scattering from spontaneous Raman scattering

We present a quantum electrodynamic theory which shows for the first time how stimulated Raman scattering builds up, both spatially and temporally, from spontaneous Raman scattering. We analytically solve operator Maxwell-Bloch equations to find the Stokes field operator, and thus the Stokes intensity, for both monochromatic and broad-band (phase diffusion) pump lasers.

Numerical optimization of the extracavity Raman laser with barium nitrate crystal

The radiation transfer equations of the extracavity Raman laser including up to the third Stokes beams and backward Raman scattering terms were deduced in detail from the wave equation and material equations of stimulated Raman scattering. The radiation transfer equations were solved numerically to optimize the performance of the extracavity Raman lasers with barium nitrate crystal as the nonlinear medium. The optimum reflectivity of the output coupler at the first Stokes was figured out numerically to achieve the maximum conversion efficiency of the first Stokes, and found to be closely related to the pump pulse duration, peak intensity of the pump pulse, and Raman crystal length. With the resonator mirrors highly reflective at the first Stokes, the highest conversion efficiency of the second Stokes was obtained when the input mirror was highly reflective at second Stokes, whereas the output coupler was highly transmissive at the second Stokes. It was found that too high intracavity intensity of the second Stokes would impede the efficient energy extraction from the pump pulse to the first Stokes, and consequently, limit the conversion efficiency of the second Stokes.     

Generation of undamped stokes radiation under resonant pumping of the dipole-forbidden transition in a Ξ-atom

We have developed a theory of the nonlinear ring interaction of three intense fields in the scheme of resonant Raman scattering on the dipole-allowed transition from the ground state to the first excited state of a cascade three-level quantum system. We show that the backward Stokes radiation generated by a pump resonant to the dipole-forbidden transition can be used in remote laser sensing of metal vapors.     

High Efficient C6H12 Raman Laser Enhanced by DCM Fluorescence

We report the first-order Stokes output （wavelength of 627.6 nm） from C6H12 enhanced by DCM dye fluorescence with high energy conversion efficiency of 47.9%, quantum conversion efficiency of 56.5%. To our knowledge, it is the highest conversion efficiency of stimulated Raman scattering obtained from liquid Raman laser. A 532nm frequency doubled Nd：YAG laser with 8 Hz repetition rate is employed as the pump source, and the enhancement medium is DCM dye solution in ethanol. The conversion efficiencies at various pump energies and various pump repetition rates are measured and analysed. The enhancement mechanism of SRS together with its potential application is discussed.
