Brillouin scattering self-cancellation [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2016 The interaction between light and acoustic phonons is radically modified in sub-wavelength photonic structures. Here, the authors engineer the optical and acoustic modes to perfectly cancel the two interaction mechanisms—the photo-elastic and moving ...

Brillouin scattering—theory and experiment: tutorial [PDF]
Journal of the Optical Society of America B: Optical Physics, 2021 Brillouin scattering is an important and interesting nonlinear effect involving the interaction between optical and acoustic fields in optical waveguides. It is increasingly useful in the field of photonics, where it supplies a tunable ultra-narrow linewidth response that can be used for applications including sensing, filtering, and lasing, as well as

On-chip stimulated Brillouin scattering
Optics Express, 2011 We demonstrate on-chip stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in an As2S3 chalcogenide rib waveguide. SBS was characterized in a cm long waveguide with a cross-section 4 μm x 850 nm using the backscattered signal and pump-probe technique. The measured Brillouin shift and its full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) linewidth were ~7.7 GHz and 34 MHz ...

Contra-intuitive features of time-domain Brillouin scattering in collinear paraxial sound and light beams [PDF]
Photoacoustics, 2020 Time-domain Brillouin scattering is an opto-acousto-optical probe technique for the evaluation of transparent materials. Via optoacoustic conversion, ultrashort pump laser pulses launch coherent acoustic pulses in the sample.
