Characterization of stimulated Brillouin scattering in a circular-core two-mode fiber using optical time-domain analysis

open access: yesOptics Express, 2013
We show characterization of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in a circular-core two-mode fiber (c-TMF) using Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) with a pulsed pump and a counterpropagating continuous wave probe. By using two free-space mode combiners (FSMCs), we can launch any combination of spatial modes into both ends of the c-TMF ...

Influence of Pump Light on LP01 and LP11 Modes in Few-Mode Fiber Brillouin Optical Time Domain Reflectometry

open access: yesPhotonics
The quality of pump pulse in few-mode-fiber Brillouin optical time domain reflectometry (FMF-BOTDR) is vital for the spontaneous Brillouin scattering of modes LP01 and LP11 because it is the comprehensive effect of the main laser linewidth and pulse ...

Discrimination of Temperature and Strain in Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analysis Using a Multicore Optical Fiber

open access: yesSensors, 2018
Brillouin optical time domain analysis is the sensing of temperature and strain changes along an optical fiber by measuring the frequency shift changes of Brillouin backscattering.

Influence of layer thickness on time domain Brillouin scattering oscillation amplitude in multilayer films

open access: yesJournal of Applied Physics
This paper investigates the impact of a sample structure on the amplitude of time-domain Brillouin scattering (TDBS) oscillations using silicon wafers with different oxide layer thicknesses as an example. According to the calculation results based on transfer matrix theory and Green’s function, along with experimental results, we discovered that the ...

Quantification of ultrafast nonlinear photothermal and photoacoustic effects in molecular thin films via time-domain Brillouin scattering

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics
Improving the efficiency of photothermal (PT) therapies and photoacoustic (PA) imaging at the microscopic scale hinges on developing multiphoton-absorbing photothermal molecules or contrast agents that operate in the near-infrared (NIR) range. These advanced agents or molecules will enable excitation with NIR lasers, in an improved transparency range ...

BGS Distribution Deformation in BOTDR Induced by Self-Phase Modulation

open access: yesPhotonic Sensors
We report the numerical and experimental studies of the two-dimensional Brillouin gain spectrum (BGS) distribution deformation induced by the self-phase modulation in the Brillouin optical time domain reflectometry (BOTDR) with a 20.6 km sensing distance.

Time-domain Brillouin scattering assisted by diffraction gratings

open access: yesTime-domain Brillouin scattering assisted by diffraction gratings
Absorption of ultrashort laser pulses in a metallic grating deposited on a transparent sample launches coherent compression/dilatation acoustic pulses in directions of different orders of acoustic diffraction. Their propagation is detected by delayed laser pulses, which are also diffracted by the metallic grating, through the measurement of the ...
