Simulated Rotational Raman Conversion in H2, D2 and HD

Abstract

This paper describes single-pass rotational Raman conversion efficiencies at 532 nm measured in H2, D2, and HD with different focusing geometries and over a range of pressures. Maximum efficiencies of 80%, 75%, and 64% were obtained at the first Stokes transition in these gases.
