Abstract

Results are presented of experimental studies of Raman scattering (RS) of light and of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) of light, in which the quantum and cooperative properties of these phenomena are manifested. Experiments are described, revealing for the first time ever the connection between the integral intensity of the RS and SRS spectra and Brownian motion of molecules in condensed media. A number of experimental properties of RS and SRS are interpreted as results of collective behavior of molecules in condensed media. Spatial energy quantization of SRS energy is observed for the first time following excitation by 10−9- and 10-12-sec pulses. The experimental results are discussed in the Conclusion in light of the existing theoretical premises. New properties of RS and SRS are demonstrated and an explanation of their physical nature is proposed.
