The principles and operation of narrow-bandwidth and mode-locked tunable dye lasers are described and the extension of their effective tuning ranges by harmonic generation and stimulated Raman scattering is discussed. Methods of producing highpower ultraviolet radiation using excimer lasers and techniques for vacuum u.v. generation by frequency mixing are also described.

Abstract Warm rubidium vapours are known to be a versatile medium for a variety of experiments in atomic physics and quantum optics. Here we present experimental results on producing the frequency converted light for quantum applications based on spontaneous and stimulated processes in rubidium vapours. In particular, we study the efficiency of spontaneously initiated stimulated Raman scattering in the Λ-level configuration and conditions of generating the coherent blue light assisted by multi-photon transitions in the diamond-level configuration. Our results will be helpful in search for new types of interfaces between light and atomic quantum memories.
