Laser pulses interaction with tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) in Tris-HCl pH7.5 buffer and in water has been investigated. 20 ns ruby laser pulses have been used for excitation. Spectrum of the light passing through the sample was registered with the help of Fabri-Perot interferometer. In the case of TMV in water we observed in the spectrum only one line of the exciting laser light, for TMV in Tris-HCl pH7.5 buffer second line appeared, corresponding to the stimulated low-frequency Raman scattering (SLFRS) on the breathing radial mode of TMV. SLFRS frequency shift by 2 cm-1, (60 GHz), conversion efficiency and threshold are measured for the first time to the best of our knowledge.

Stimulated low-frequency Raman scattering can give essential information about the elastic properties of different nanoparticles systems, in particular, biological nanostructures. In the present study, low-frequency vibrational modes in human and bov ine serum albumin were for the first time investigated using stimulated low-frequency Raman scattering. Stimulated low-frequency Raman scattering frequency shifts, corresponding to acoustic eigenfrequencies of the sample, were registered by Fabri-Perot interferometers. Conversion efficiency, threshold and set of eigenfrequencies were also measured. Stimulated low-frequency Raman scattering can be applied for biological objects identification and impact on them.
A simple physical mechanism of stimulated light scattering on nanoscale objects in water suspension similar to Langmuir waves mechanism in plasma is proposed. The proposed mechanism is based on a dipole interaction between the light wave and the non- compensated electrical charge that inevitably exists on a nanoscale object (a virus or a nanoparticle) in water environment. The experimental data for tobacco mosaic virus and polystyrene nanospheres are presented to support the suggested physical mechanism. It has been demonstrated that stimulated amplification spectral line frequencies observed experimentally are well explained by the suggested mechanism. In particular, the absence of lower frequency lines and the generation lines shift when changing the pH are due to ion friction appearing in the ionic solution environment. The selection rules observed experimentally also confirm the dipole interaction type. It has been shown that microwave radiation on nanoscale object acoustic vibrations frequency should appear under such scattering conditions. We demonstrate that such conditions also allow for local selective heating of nanoscale objects by dozens to hundreds degrees K. This effect is controlled by the optical irradiation parameters and can be used for affecting selectively certain types of viruses.
The interaction of laser pulses with the Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) in a Tris-HCl pH7.5 buffer is investigated. 20 ns ruby laser pulses are used for excitation. Spectra of the light passing through the sample and reflected from it are registered with the help of a Fabri-Perot interferometer. Stimulated low-frequency Raman scattering (SLFRS) in a CaMV suspension is registered. The SLFRS frequency shift, conversion efficiency and threshold are measured for the first time, to the best of our knowledge.
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy allows for high-speed label-free chemical imaging of biomedical systems. The imaging sensitivity of SRS microscopy is limited to ~10 mM for endogenous biomolecules. Electronic pre-resonant SRS allows detec tion of sub-micromolar chromophores. However, label-free SRS detection of single biomolecules having extremely small Raman cross-sections (~10-30 cm2 sr-1) remains unreachable. Here, we demonstrate plasmon-enhanced stimulated Raman scattering (PESRS) microscopy with single-molecule detection sensitivity. Incorporating pico-Joule laser excitation, background subtraction, and a denoising algorithm, we obtained robust single-pixel SRS spectra exhibiting the statistics of single-molecule events. Single-molecule detection was verified by using two isotopologues of adenine. We further demonstrated the capability of applying PESRS for biological applications and utilized PESRS to map adenine released from bacteria due to starvation stress. PESRS microscopy holds the promise for ultrasensitive detection of molecular events in chemical and biomedical systems.
The inclusion of atomic inversion in Raman scattering can significantly alter field dynamics in plasmonic settings. Our calculations show that large local fields and femtosecond pulses combine to yield: (i) population inversion within hot spots; (ii) gain saturation; and (iii) conversion efficiencies characterized by a switch-like transition to the stimulated regime that spans twelve orders of magnitude. While in Raman scattering atomic inversion is usually neglected, we demonstrate that in some circumstances full accounting of the dynamics of the Bloch vector is required.
