Stimulated Raman Scattering of Squeezed Light with Pump Depletion

Abstract
Using the approximation of small fluctuations around a stationary point, photon statistics and squeezing of vacuum fluctuations are derived in stimulated Raman scattering including the coupling of photon-photon and photon-phonon modes. The depletion of pump light is described and it is shown that a regime of inversion of the process is related to an increase in quantum fluctuations, which are finally reduced again, more in the anti-Stokes mode than in the Stokes mode. If the anti-Stokes coupling is stronger than the Stokes coupling, then an oscillating behaviour of the statistical characteristics occurs and substantial squeezing can be found in photon-phonon modes.
