Wavefront reversal in stimulated scattering of twofrequency pump radiation

G. G. Kochemasov, V. D. Nikolaev


Abstract: The quasioptic approximation is used to study the influence of pump radiation nonmonochromaticity on the spatial and angular characteristics of the scattered radiation. It is shown that the temporal noncoherence may greatly distort the angular spectrum of the Stokes component of the scattered radiation, compared with the case of monochromatic pumping.
