Abstract :
Simultaneous rotational and vibrational Raman generation was observed in cooled deuterium gas. Strong vibrational generation leads unexpectedly to efficient rotational generation, while under different conditions the vibrational generation may suppress a self-starting stimulated rotational generation.
