Abstract

New nonlinear‐laser properties of the non‐centrosymmetric cubic crystals CsLiMoO~4~ and CsLiMoO~4~ ·⅓H~2~O were studied by stimulated Raman scattering spectroscopy (SRS). Multiple Stokes and anti‐Stokes generation sidebands in the visible and near‐IR under picosecond laser pumping have been observed for the first time. All recorded Raman induced lasing components were identified and attribute to two of the SRS‐promoting A~1~(ν~1~)‐stretching (ω~SRS1~ ≈ 925 cm^–1^) and E(ν~2~)‐bending (ω~SRS2~ ≈ 310 cm^–1^) vibration modes of the $ {\rm MoO_4^{-2} } $ units of the crystals. The estimation measurement of the steady‐state Raman gain coefficients in the near‐IR region for both first Stokes generations in the CsLiMoO~4~·⅓H~2~O crystal showed that they are not less than 3.1 cm · GW^–1^. Besides of high‐order Stokes and anti‐Stokes lasing in this hydrated molybdate cascaded χ^(3)^ → χ^(2)^ sum‐frequency mixing interaction was observed under one‐micron pumping. Large single crystals of optical quality of both compounds were grown and characterized with respect to their structure and structural stability. Ferroic phase transitions, that occur in CsLiMoO~4~ are suppressed in the novel compound CsLiMoO~4~·⅓H~2~O. We classify these molybdates as attractive SRS‐active crystalline materials.

Trigonal Na 3 Li(MoO 4 ) 2 •6H 2 O was found to be an attractive, simultaneously χ (2) -and χ (3) -active nonlinear optical crystal. We investigated its basic optical properties and observed several nonlinear effects, namely many-phonon SRS, almost twooctave Stokes and anti-Stokes lasing combs, SHG,
