Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coupled differential equations have been formulated which model the generation of coherent anti-Stokes Raman radiation in molecular gases. The equations include not only the basic term which involves the coherent interaction of incident pump and idler (Stokes) waves to generate the anti-Stokes radiation, but also include additional terms which model other radiation and absorption processes, both stimulated and coherent, which occur simultaneously. These are important in determining saturation effects due to population depletion of the lowest energy level. Other effects have also been considered. These are a finite idler beam bandwidth (simultaneous excitation of more than one vibration frequency) a quasi-monochromatic idler beam slightly off the true Stokes frequency; laser pulse shape; modification of the result for different rotational levels. A number of different computer codes have been developed to solve the equations at different levels of complexity. With them numerical investigation of the effects of various physical factors on saturation was carried out. Some of the results are presented graphically. (Author).
