Abstract

This chapter explores the use of nonlinear spectroscopy as a means to detect molecules in the gas phase. This investigation is motivated by the need for remote sensing and provides concepts that can incorporate backward lasing schemes. The current state of the art with respect to remote Raman sensing using spontaneous Raman is reviewed, and then the use of stimulated Raman and impulsive Raman is presented. We review the use of remote Raman spectroscopy with potential applications in atmospheric sensing, pollution monitoring, and chemical signature detection including explosives, radiological signatures, and biological pathogens.
