Abstract
Stimulated Raman scattering has been observed in quartz at low temperatures in which the 467 cm−1 Stokes line is split into two or more sharp components. The quartz samples, which were in the form of resonant cavities, behaved as Raman oscillators pumped by a ruby laser. Measurement of the Fabry—Perot mode spacings of the oscillators showed that substantial mode pulling was occurring. This was interpreted according to mode‐pulling theory.
