Abstract

Raman-induced many-phonons Stokes and anti-Stokes generation in a orthorhombic crystals KHC6H4(COO)2 and (NH4)HC6H4(COO)2 under picosecond pumping has been observed. All recorded nonlinear lasing lines in the visible and near-IR regions are identified and attributed to the χ(3)-promoting vibration modes of these orthorhombic phthalates.
