Stimulated Raman scattering in millimeter-sized droplets

Abstract

Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) is observed in acoustically levitated millimeter-sized glycerol droplets irradi­ated with a frequency-doubled (532-nm wavelength) pulsed Nd:YAG laser. The laser irradiance threshold for SRS emission (a few gigawatts per square centimeter) is close to that for laser-induced breakdown (LIB) within the droplet. LIB generates small gas bubbles inside the droplet, which in turn suppress SRS emission.
