Which mechanism causes standing waves during stimulated Raman scattering?

A)Bragg diffraction from refractive index
B)Phase-matching within nonlinear medium
C)Anti-Stokes frequency conversion shift
D)Polariton formation drives energy shifts

💡 Explanation

Bragg diffraction creates standing waves because optical interference causes the probe beam to diffract from the modulated grating; therefore, creating feedback. Index modulation is the mechanism. This occurs rather than other effects, at specific wavelengths matching grating spacing.
