Abstract: High-order Stokes and anti-Stokes generation in the visible and near-infrared in cubic laser crystal hosts Gd₃Ga₅O₁₂, Gd₃Sc₂Ga₃O₁₂, and Ca₃(Nb,Ga)₂Ga₃O₁₂ was observed for the first time. All scattering-laser components were identified and attributed to the SRS-active vibration modes of these garnet crystals.
