Abstract: | The sequential excitation of LiF crystals with F 2 ? color centers and KGd(WO4)2 crystals by 1047-nm laser pulses with a duration of 22 ps is investigated. Broadband (275 cm?1) Stokes superluminescence appearing in the fluoride crystal undergoes nonstationary Raman amplification in the oxide crystal. The amplified pulses with a Stokes frequency shift of 767 cm?1, a duration of 7 ps, and a power up to ~1.1 MW have high spatial and time coherence and exhibit time delay increasing from ~1 to 4.5 ns with a decreasing pump power. The results are discussed in terms of the cooperative Raman scattering. |
