The stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in H-2 gas above the dissociation energy limit was recorded using a 266-nm UV laser. All of the observed Stokes and anti-Stokes SRS lines showed a normal behavior except the third Stokes SRS lines at 397.8 nm, which showed a substantial intensity enhancement of about a 36%-conversion efficiency of the pump energy. This enhancement in the SRS line is attributed to the seeding of the SRS line into the Balmer H-Sigma line at 397 nm in molecular hydrogen. To the best of our knowledge, there is no report of any work on enhanced stimulated Raman scattering in H-2 by the seeding of the H-Sigma Balmer line into the SRS line and attaining a very high intensity at the third Stokes SRS lines at 397.8 nm. The cell pressure and the laser pulse energy dependence of these SRS lines substantiate our explanation.
