Abstract :
At present for the creation of Raman lasers and amplifiers for numerous applications various glass optical fibers and crystals are mainly used. In recent years silicon photonics technology has made rapid progress and Raman silicon lasers and amplifiers have been successfully demonstrated. Recent results on new Raman materials and devices are reviewed.
