Theoretical analysis of Raman scattering induced by a twin photon beam with quantum correlation

A Raman transition induced by a twin photon beam with quantum correlation, which is generated by nondegenerate parametric down-conversion, is theoretically analysed. The signal intensity of induced Raman scattering for the twin photon beam is twice as large as that for two coherent beams without correlation. Application of the twin photon beam is proposed for optical measurements of ESR spectra, which are useful for investigation of dislocations in semiconductor materials.
