A continuous-wave Nd:YVO4/BaWO4 Raman laser generating simultaneous multi-wavelength first-Stokes and second-Stokes emissions is demonstrated for the first time,to the best of our knowledge.Investigations concern-ing different pump spot sizes and crystal lengths were conducted to improve the thermal effect and pump absorption.Three first-Stokes lasers at 1103.6,1175.9,and 1180.7 nm and two second-Stokes lasers at 1145.7 and 1228.9 nm are obtained simultaneously using the Raman shifts of 925 cm-1 and 332 cm-1 in BaWO4 and 890 cm-1 in YVO4.At the incident pump power of 23.1 W,1.24 W maximum Raman output power is achieved,corresponding to an optical conversion efficiency of 5.4％.We also present a theoretical analysis of the competi-tion between different Stokes lines.
