Abstract

The available gain for stimulated Raman scattering has been computed from measured values of absolute spontaneous Raman scattering cross sections at 300° and 80°K for various materials including Li6NbO3 and Ba2NaNb5O15. The power gain coefficients and power required for 1% gain per pass with confocal geometry at λ = 1.065 μ are tabulated for the more promising materials. Operation of a CW or quasi-CW Raman oscillator appears feasible, particularly with the most efficient material, Li6NbO3.
