Raman Interaction
Generation of Raman sidebands in diamond. Two Gaussian laser beams, pump (purple), and Stokes (dark orange), enter a Raman medium (diamond) and generate a broadband of higher order anti-Stokes. This photo is taken by moving a white screen in front of the beams at a 30 seconds time exposure of the camera. The camera is a Canon EOS 80D. The experimental setup is made by Aysan bahari from Dr. Alexei Sokolov's group in a quantum optics lab at Texas A&M University, and this photo is taken by Aysan Bahari and Dustin Scriven at Texas A&M University, US. [Honorable mention 2019 After Image photo contest.]
