✦ Synopsis
Efficient high-order stimulated Raman scattering was excited under picosecond pumping in the visible and near-IR in four crystals of the α-alum family - novel isotropic χ^(3)^-active crystalline materials. All observed Stokes and anti-Stokes lasing components were identified and attributed to the promoting ≈1000 cm^-1^vibration modes of these crystals. Their one-micron steady-state first Stokes Raman gain coefficients were estimated as well.
