We describe a new type of Raman gain medium; namely, molecular hydrogen held in a solid-silica,(1) low-loss optical fiber (gas-in-glass). This new medium combines the advantages of a silica fiber -- long interaction path, low loss, controllable dispersion and convenience in handling -- with the large Raman shift of H2 (4136 cm−1 in silica).
