Spatial-mode control of a transient Raman amplifier

Abstract

It has been observed for some time that the Stokes amplitude fluctuations associated with stimulated Raman scattering can be quite severe.1 In addition, recent experimental results by Raymer et al.2 and Murray et al.3 have shown that, for Fresnel numbers of the order of 10-450, stimulated Raman scattering produces an output Stokes beam that has a spatial pattern with large and random amplitude fluctuations. These amplitude and spatial fluctuations are caused by the zero-point energy fluctuations that are the sources for the stimulated Raman process.2
