IR stimulated emitted in laser-induced Ba transitions. For the second coupling type the various nonlinear processes contributing
to the formation of the coupling components are discussed. The power of the UV-component as function of inensity and resonance
detuning of the laser as well as on the phase-mismatch was calculated on the basis of the small signal theory and compared
to the experimental data. |
