Quasiperiodic Raman technique for ultrashort pulse generation.

We report the experimental demonstration of a new Raman technique that produces 200 sidebands, ranging in wavelength from 3 microm to 195 nm. By studying multiphoton ionization of nitric oxide (NO) molecules, we show mutual phase coherence among 15 visible sidebands covering 0.63 octaves of bandwidth.
