Abstract
The resonant enhancement and polarization properties of stimulated electronic Raman scattering by alkali metal atoms are investigated. Spin-orbit splitting of nearly-resonant intermediate levels results in 90 degrees rotation of the plane of polarization of the stimulated Stokes radiation. The relationship to two-photon absorption is also described.Keywords
