An approach that employs the aperture in front of the Raman crystal for the generation of high-order stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) was proposed. Furthermore, first- to fifth-order anti-Stokes components (508, 486, 465, 447, and 430 nm) and first- to fifth-order Stokes components (559, 588, 621, 658, and 700 nm) were generated by a potassium gadolinium tungstate (KGW) Raman generator, which were the highest-order SRS generated in KGW. The effect of the aperture was discussed, and the angular dependence of Stokes was calculated theoretically and experimentally. |
