Abstract
Raman frequency shift, line width, integral and peak Raman scattering cross sections were measured in various crystals using spontaneous Raman spectro scopy. The highest Raman gain coefficient in steady state Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) regime was proved to be in barium nitrate crystal; for tra nsient SRS it is expected to be in lithium niobate and tungstate crystals. Barium molybdate crystal is proposed as a new highly efficient Raman materi al. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
