Zur Theorie der nichtstationären stimulierten Raman-Streuung

The theory of transient stimulated Raman scattering is developed taking into account the deplation of the pump pulse. Two coupled differential equations describing the conversion of a laser pulse in a Stokes wave are derived with the aid of a semiclassical nonstationary perturbation calculation without the phonon concept. The equations are solved both analytically by a successive approximation and by computer calculations. Estimations are given of the delay of the Stokes pulse, the gain and a characteristic length concerning the conversion.     

Theorie des stimulierten Raman-Effekts

We consider stimulated Raman emission in solids, placed in a plane laser beam external to the cavity. The Hamiltonian of the system of phonons, electrons and electromagnetic fields is derived within the framework of a generalized adiabatic approximation for electrons and nuclei. It contains terms due to nonlinear interactions between electrons and phonons. Because the usual time-dependent perturbation theory cannot describe coherence effects properly we turn toHeisenberg's equations of motion for the operators of photons, phonons and electron excitations. In order to solve these equations in the steady state we apply an iteration procedure. We start with the light waves which give rise to electron transitions. The electrons such excited create phonons which then react on the electrons. Finally the electrons are coupled again to the lightfield. This procedure yields besides the usual wellknown Raman process two main processes occurring in stimulated Raman emission: a coupled two step Raman process and a parametric process. In the first one two phonons are involved. If the linewidth of phonons is comparable to the phonon frequencies the non-resonant parts of the above processes also become important. In solving the set of coupled equations for the light amplitudes, obtained from the iteration procedure, we only consider terms due to the first Stokes, the first anti-Stokes and the laser line. We then find frequency shifts of these lines due to the stimulated emission which are of the order of the linewidth of photons if this linewidth is very much smaller than that of phonons as it is the case in solids. This means that the coupled two step Raman process is dominant, in good agreement with measurements ofChiao andStoicheff in calcite.
