A study was conducted on stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) when laser-induced plasma is formed in heavy water by focusing an intense picosecond pulsed Nd:YAG laser beam with wavelength 532 nm at room temperature. An unexpected 280 cm(-1) low frequency SRS line attributed to the lattice translational modes is observed. This SRS line and the internal-mode SRS lines indicate that the ice VII structure is formed in heavy water under the condition of laser-induced shockwave production.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
