On the quantum theory of stimulated Raman scattering II: Effect of detuning and upper-level population

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics B Aims and scope

Abstract

A fully quantum mechanical density-matrix formalism of stimulated Raman scattering is presented with the help of the usual two-level atomic (molecular) system. Detuning between the frequencies involved is taken into account. Both the atomic levels are considered to be populated initially. The equations are solved to fourth-order in atom-field coupling constant and various aspects of photon-statistics of Stokes field are studied. The coherence characteristics of Stokes field are obtained and an approximate time-dependent case discussed.
