Abstract
A new approach to the problem of steady-state plane-wave propagation in a Raman-active medium has lead to general analytical solutions. Any arbitrary number of fields can interact via both Raman and four-wave processes, but all fields must satisfy the phase-matching condition. The solutions will be illustrated with a problem of current interest; multiple first Stokes generation from a multiple-mode pump field.Keywords
