Journal Article
Syed, K., Mcdonald, G., & New, G. (2000). Transverse effects in multifrequency Raman generation. Journal of the Optical Society of America B, 17(8), 1366-1375. https://doi.org/10.1364/JOSAB.17.001366

The theory of ultrabroadband multifrequency Raman generation is extended, for the first time, to allow for beam-propagation effects in one and two transverse dimensions. We show that a complex transverse structure develops even when diffraction is ne... Read More about Transverse effects in multifrequency Raman generation.
