The scattering of photons from spin waves (Brillouin light scattering -- BLS) is a well-established technique for the study of layered magnetic systems. The information about the magnetic state and properties of the sample is contained in…
Here we identify a new form of optomechanical coupling in gas-filled hollow-core fibers. Stimulated forward Brillouin scattering is observed in air in the core of a photonic bandgap fiber. A single resonance is observed at 35 MHz, which…
Optical frequency comb generation by continuous-wave-pumped cascaded quadratic nonlinearities (CQN) appears a promising alternative to well-established modelocked lasers, especially if access to the mid-infrared spectral region is needed.…
The simultaneous control of optical and mechanical waves has enabled a range of fundamental and technological breakthroughs, from the demonstration of ultra-stable frequency reference devices to the exploration of the quantum-classical…
In this paper, we explore the spatio-temporal dynamics of spontaneous and stimulated forward Brillouin scattering. This general treatment incorporates the optomechanical coupling produced by boundary-induced radiation pressures (boundary…
Realization of chip-scale nonreciprocal optics such as isolators and circulators is highly demanding for all-optical signal routing and protection with standard photonics foundry process. Owing to the significant challenge for incorporating…
Brillouin processes couple light and sound through optomechanical three-wave interactions. Within bulk solids, this coupling is mediated by the intrinsic photo-elastic material response yielding coherent emission of high frequency (GHz)…
We study the impact of structural variations (that is slowly varying geometry aberrations and internal strain fields) on the width and shape of the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) resonance in nanoscale waveguides. We find that they…
The process of stimulated Brillouin scattering is described by the model of two-dimensional oscillator. The phenomenon of entanglement which appears in the photon-phonon modes after the interaction with matter is discussed.
We measure the Brillouin gain spectra in two cores (the central core and one of the outer cores) of a ~3-m-long, silica-based, 7-core multi-core fiber (MCF) with incident light of 1550 nm wavelength, and investigate the Brillouin frequency…
While nanoscale modal confinement radically enhances a variety of nonlinear light-matter interactions within silicon waveguides, traveling-wave stimulated Brillouin scattering nonlinearities have never been observed in silicon…
We consider a counter-intuitive regime of stimulated Brillouin scattering in which the pump wave absorbs the phase defects of the Stokes wave, yielding a nonlinear self-stabilisation of the acoustic wave and a narrowing of the acoustic…
Recent work investigated the use of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) to measure changes in fiber parameters, thereby enhancing the security of a Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) system. In this work, we focus solely on the impact of…
High-power narrow-linewidth fiber lasers are fundamentally limited by stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS), which constrains further power scaling while maintaining spectral linewidth. Traditional mitigation techniques, such as active…
Chip-scale coherent light sources are required in applications spanning metrology and sensing to telecommunications. Brillouin lasers (BLs) offer a route to ultra-coherent optical sources in compact microresonators with free spectral range…
Recent experiments demonstrating storage of optical pulses in acoustic phonons based on stimulated Brillouin scattering raise a number of questions about the spectral and temporal capacities of such protocols and the limitations of the…
Frequency- and time-domain Brillouin scattering spectroscopy are powerful tools to read out the mechanical properties of complex systems in material and life sciences. Indeed, coherent acoustic phonons in the time-domain method offer…
A novel study on harmonic frequency combs emitted by Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs) is here presented, demonstrating the presence of intensity correlations between twin modes characterising the emission spectra. These originate from a…
The evolution of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) driven by broadband lasers in high-Z plasmas is investigated using one-dimensional collisional particle-in-cell simulations. The temporal incoherence of broadband lasers modulates the…
We introduce a new cascaded four-wave mixing technique which scales up the bandwidth of frequency combs generated by phase modulation of a continuous wave laser while simultaneously enhancing the spectral flatness. As a result we…
