Abstract
Disclosed herein is a device (10) for converting a light (12) received thereby. The device (10) comprises a resonating structure (14) comprising a Raman medium. The resonating structure is arranged to resonate Raman light (18) generated by a Raman interaction between the Raman medium and the light (12) when so received.
Claims42
A device for converting a light received thereby, the device comprising a resonating structure comprising a Raman medium having a thermal conductivity of greater than 2 W/K/m, the resonating structure being arranged to resonate Raman light generated by a Raman interaction between the Raman medium and the light when so received, the resonating structure being arranged to lose less than 5% of the resonating Raman light's energy in a resonance cycle period of the resonating structure.
