Abstract This paper proposes a theoretical scheme to synthesize white laser source based on the cascaded sum frequency generation (CSFG) model with stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP). In the CSFG model, the signal laser, intermediate laser and output laser correspond to red, green and blue (RGB) lasers respectively. The results show that in general the red laser is completely converted to the blue laser, and there is no apparent intermediate green laser. Moreover, under the counterintuitive order, the pump parameters have a wider adjustment range of system conversion efficiency than the coupling delay parameters. We synthesize the white laser source through the following steps. First, we change the pump intensity to roughly adjust the conversion efficiency of the system, and then vary the coupling delay parameters to fine-tune RGB lasers output power ratio. Compared with the scheme based on frequency conversion with Stark-chirped rapid adiabatic passage to synthesize white laser source, the RGB lasers output of the new scheme can achieve better stability. The results of the investigation can provide a theoretical foundation for the research of novel optical devices.
