Distributed Raman amplification is an attractive way to improve the OSNR in optical transmission systems. However, this requires profound system knowledge to profit from these potential benefits. Especially in the case of co-directional pumped Raman amplifiers the evolution of the signal powers over the propagation distance is of interest in order to avoid signal distortions. Within the design process...
Hollow-core photonic crystal fibers (HC-PCF) opened new perspectives towards multi-octave comb generation and waveform synthesis using stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) generation in gases introduced in its core [1, 2]. In the transient regime of SRS [3], a short pump pulse combined to a high gain can amplify a few spatial-temporal modes (STM) from the quantum noise. It is even possible to have only...
The use of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) for Kerr comb generation is very attractive because it allows us to generate long-wavelength light, particularly in the mid-infrared wavelength regime, where the wavelengths are useful for sensing applications. Recently, the generation of comb light and the interaction between transverse modes with the SRS process using a crystalline microcavity have been...
Coherent Raman scattering microscopy, an emerging imaging technology using nonlinear-optical effects such as coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) or stimulated Raman scattering (SRS), has gained increasing attention because of its highly-sensitive, chemically-specific imaging capability with an intrinsic molecular-vibrational contrast. Despite the recent technical advancements, specific detection...
Stimulated Raman scattering is coherently suppressed if the rate of phonon creation is exactly balanced by the rate of phonon annihilation, a prediction first made by Bloembergen and Shen in 1964 [1]. Viewed classically, this occurs when the fringe patterns created by the interference of pump-Stokes and pump-anti-Stokes signals cancel each other out. It has been recently shown that gas-filled hollow-core...
The development of the Raman gas-filled hollow core photonic crystal fibers allow to exacerbate the light-matter interaction with extremely high efficiency. Among the nonlinear optical effect that were extensively explored we count stimulated Raman scattering, with demonstrations like over 5-octaves wide Raman comb using H2-filled inhibited coupling guiding HC-PCF pumped with a picosecond pulsed laser...
