Polarization Simultons in Stimulated Raman Scattering by Polaritons

摘要

Expressions are obtained for the shortened Maxwell’s equations simulating the evolution of the ultrashort pulses propagating in anisotropic dipole-active crystals in stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) by polaritons. The developed theory considers the case of cubic crystals which become anisotropic due to the deformation of the dielectric constant by the linearly polarized pump wave. The pump field is approximated by a linearly polarized plane electromagnetic wave. The possibility of simultaneous propagation of pulses on both different frequencies (pump and Stokes) and different polarization (simultons) is theoretically shown. It is also shown that the expression for the gain factor g in SRS is consistent with the experimental results for the spectra of ZnS.
