Abstract
When focusing an Nd glass laser (frequency ωo) onto a cryogenic target (D2 or H2) quite intense lines with frequencies 2ωo, 3ω0/2, ω0/2 are found in the reflected light in both backward and 45° directions. The lines at 2ω0 and 3ω0/2 are broadened on the low frequency side only. The occurrence and broadening of such lines may be related to parametric excitation of waves.
Presented at the Third Workshop on “Laser Interaction and Related Plasma Phenomena” held at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, New York, August 13–17, 1973.
