As optical clocks are improved to reach the frequency uncertainty below the 10$^{-17}$ level, the frequency shift due to the blackbody radiation (BBR) has been one of the major systematic effects hindering further improvement. To evaluate…
Brillouin-Mandelstam scattering is a strong and readily accessible optical nonlinearity enabling a wide array of applications and research directions. For instance, the three-wave mixing process has been employed to great success for…
A Wannier-Stark optical lattice clock has demonstrated unprecedented measurement precision for optical atomic clocks. We present a systematic evaluation of the lattice light shift, a necessary next step for establishing this system as an…
Future metrology standards will be partly based on physical quantities computed from first principles rather than measured. In particular, a new pressure standard can be established if the dynamic polarizability of helium can be determined…
Brillouin spectroscopy emerges as a promising non-invasive tool for nanoscale imaging and sensing. One-dimensional semiconductor superlattice structures are eminently used for selectively enhancing the generation or detection of phonons at…
We construct an exact dynamical mean field theory for nonresonant inelastic light scattering in the infinite-dimensional Falicov-Kimball model, which can be tuned through a quantum critical metal-insulator transition. Due to the projection…
Optical vortices, which have been extensively studied over the last decades, offer an additional degree of freedom useful in many applications, such as optical tweezers and quantum control. Stimulated Brillouin scattering, providing a…
The selection rules governing spontaneous Brillouin scattering in crystalline solids are usually taken as intrinsic material properties, locking the relative polarization of excitation and signal in bulk. In this work, we independently…
In this article we present an evaluation of the uncertainty in the average number of photoelectrons, which is important for the calibration of photodetectors. We show that the statistical uncertainty depends on light intensity, and on the…
We discuss the implications of an experiment in which the frequencies of two laser beams are compared for different intensities in order to search for a dependence of the frequency of light on its intensity. Since no such dependence was…
In this paper, we present our numerical simulation results on the Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) with injection of an ordinary mode (O-mode) electromagnetic wave (our pump wave) with frequencies 70 GHz and 110 GHz. Solving the…
Several properties of Eu:Y2SiO5 spectral holes are measured, to assess the suitability of broad-band hole-patterns for use as laser-frequency references. We measure frequency shifts due to magnetic fields, side-features of neighboring…
Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy is a powerful technique which incorporates several extensions such as space-, time-, phase- and wave-vector resolution. Here, we report on the improvement of the wave-vector resolution by including an…
The response of a vibrating beam to a force depends on many physical parameters including those determined by material properties. Damage caused by fatigue or cracks result in local reductions in stiffness parameters and may drastically…
We develop the theory of Brillouin light scattering (BLS) from spin wave modes in ferromagnetic nanospheres, within a framework that incorporates the spatial variation of the optical fields within the sphere. Our recent theory of exchange…
High precision portable and deployable frequency standards are required for modern navigation and communication technologies. Optical frequency standards are attractive for their improved stability over their microwave counterparts;…
Brillouin light scattering measurements were performed in the backscattering geometry on a Bi-substituted rare earth iron garnet. We observed two different peaks, one attributed to a surface spin wave in the dipole-exchange regime. The…
The independent measurement of Hubble constant with gravitational-wave standard sirens will potentially shed light on the tension between the local distance ladders and Planck experiments. Therefore, thorough understanding of the sources of…
A recently reported phase sensitive Brillouin light scattering technique is improved by use of a magnetic modulator. This modulator is based on Brillouin light scattering in a thin ferrite film. Using this magnetic modulator in time- and…
The spectral lineshape of spontaneous Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering in CO2 is studied in a range of pressures. The spectrum is influenced by the bulk viscosity, which is a relaxation phenomenon involving the internal degrees of freedom of…
