Stimulated anti-Stokes Raman scattering resonantly enhanced in silica microspheres

Opt Lett. 2014 Oct 15;39(20):5993-6. doi: 10.1364/OL.39.005993.

Abstract

Efficient stimulated anti-Stokes Raman scattering has been observed in silica microspherical resonators pumped by CW laser. This process is observed in the normal dispersion regime. The lack of correlation between stimulated anti-Stokes and Stokes scattering spectra indicates that the signal has to be resonant with the cavity.
