Abstract
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in gases is a versatile method for frequency conversion of femto-1,2 and picosecond3 pulses in the broad spectral range from UV to near IR. Previously we have shown that in single component gases such as H2, D2, HD and CH4, in the transient excitation regime SRS can result in efficient conversion of 400 nm pulses into a set of Stokes- and anti-Stokes components, defined by the molecule's vibrational and rotational frequencies.
