Low threshold operation of a waveguide H2 Raman laser
The use of a fused silica capillary for reduction of stimulated Raman scattering threshold in H2 gas has been investigated A threshold pump power at 1.06µm of 70 kW has been obtained, a twentyfold reduction over free space propagation. Further threshold reduction should be possible by taking care ov...

Summary: | The use of a fused silica capillary for reduction of stimulated Raman scattering threshold in H2 gas has been investigated A threshold pump power at 1.06µm of 70 kW has been obtained, a twentyfold reduction over free space propagation. Further threshold reduction should be possible by taking care over capillary straightness. |
