Nonlinear Raman scattering of photons by a channeled particle

详细

Channeled particles are characterized by the discrete spectrum of bound transverse motion. The interaction of photons with channeled particles in single crystals can be accompanied by energy transitions between the levels of transverse motion of the channeled particle. The Raman scattering of photons at a quasibound channeled particle leads to the appearance of a combination of frequencies: the incident radiation frequency ω₀ and the frequency Δω_{m, n}, i.e., ω = ω₀ ± Δω_m,n where Δω_m,n = 2Δε_m,nγ²; Δε_{m, n} is the energy of the transition between quantum states (m and n) of the transverse motion of the channeled particle; and γ = E/mc² is the Lorentz factor of the channeled particle. The appearance of a violet satellite (the anti-Stokes component) in the Raman scattering spectrum is analyzed. The three-photon Raman-type transition, which is the process of the simultaneous absorption of two photons with the frequency ω₀ with the emission of a photon with the frequency ωs = 2ω₀ ± 2Δε_m,nγ², is considered. The conditions for resonance observation during the formation of the second harmonic (ω = 2ω₀) are discussed.
