Abstract

Suppression of the stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) by a stochastic phase low-coherence laser (SPLL) in homogeneous plasma is investigated by theoretical analysis and one-dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation. A simple model is established, in which the SPLL is modelled as a combination of a monochromatic laser and a broadband laser. When the phase randomness increases, the bandwidth of the SPLL is broadened and the energy proportion of the monochromatic laser component is reduced. PIC simulation shows that the SPLL can effectively suppress SRS and hot electron generation. Various phenomena in the nonlinear process, such as the nonlinear frequency shift and the competition between forward-scattering and back-scattering modes, are explained in detail.
