Parametric excitation of Stokes waves in stimulated Raman scattering with spatially inhomogeneous pumping
Korolev F.A., Vokhnik O.M., Odintsov V.I.
Following amplification of the initial Stokes waves in the field of two intersecting single-mode beams, parametric excitation of one or two new SRS, whose directions were different from those of the initial wave, was observed. Bending of an amplified Stokes ray was observed in a diverging multimode beam.
