Theory of selective excitation in Stimulated Raman Scattering
arXiv:physics/0306166 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.69.013801
Abstract
A semiclassical model is used to investigate the possibility of selectively exciting one of two closely spaced, uncoupled Raman transitions. The duration of the intense pump pulse that creates the Raman coherence is shorter than the vibrational period of a molecule (impulsive regime of interaction). Pulse shapes are found that provide either enhancement or suppression of particular vibrational excitations.
