The opportunities for detecting of dark matter elementary particles – axions – are discussed. In accordance with the predictions of the modern theory, these particles have a very small rest mass, corresponding to the energy range 0.001. . . 1.0 meV. At the presence of magnetic field in vacuum the possibility of laser radiation conversion into axions and reverse processes as a result of Primakov effect (“Light shining through wall”) is predicted by modern theory. It is proposed to implement photon-axion conversion by using of powerfull pulsed laser as the pumping source. It is proposed to use Raman-active media for photon-axion conversion observation. In the case of Stimulated Raman Scattering the effective photon-axion conversion is predicted. The conditions of synchronism in elementary processes of photon-axion conversion may be realized fur so called unitary polaritons, for which the refractive index is close to unity,
