The fast-growing development of optomechanical applications has motivated advancements in Brillouin scattering research. In particular, the study of high frequency acoustic phonons at the nanoscale is interesting due to large range of…
Defects in solid-state materials play a central role in determining coherence, stability, and performance in quantum technologies. Although narrowband techniques can probe specific resonances with high precision, a broadband spectroscopic…
Coherent backscattering (CBS) of light waves by a random medium is a signature of interference effects in multiple scattering. This effect has been studied in many systems ranging from white paint to biological tissues. Recently, we have…
Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS), an optical nonlinearity arising from photon-phonon interactions, has formed the basis for a large class of optical signal processing devices, including Brillouin amplifiers. A limiting factor of such…
Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) microscopy enables label-free biomechanical imaging, with Brillouin gain serving as a critical contrast parameter for quantitative analysis. However, the influence of sample-induced refractive index…
Label-free imaging of rapidly moving, sub-diffraction sized structures has important applications in both biology and material science, as it removes the limitations associated with fluorescence tagging. However, unlabeled nanoscale…
In surface-enhanced Raman scattering experiments that use plasmonic nanostructures as substrates, the scattering spectrum contains a broad background usually associated with photoluminescence. This background exists above and below the…
The condensation of biomolecules into biomolecular condensates via liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is a ubiquitous mechanism that drives cellular organization. To enable these functions, biomolecules have evolved to drive LLPS and…
We present an experimental and theoretical study of cascaded high order Stimulated Brillouin Scatterings (SBS) in single mode fibers. It is shown that because of the back-scattering nature of the process, feedback in the input port is…
We demonstrate stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) lasing in a strongly coupled microcavity system. By coupling two silica toroid microcavities, we achieve large mode splitting of 11 GHz, whose frequency separation matches the Brillouin…
Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging relies on collecting light that is rendered incoherent from the multiple scattering events and is then post-processed to provide an estimate of the hidden scene. Here we employ coherent phase control of the…
A previous inelastic UV scattering experiment on silica glass is reproduced using a high grade superpolished sample. In the pristine sample condition, surface scattering is not observable compared to Rayleigh scattering from the bulk.…
Mounting evidence connects the biomechanical properties of tissues to the development of eye diseases such as keratoconus, a common disease in which the cornea thins and bulges into a conical shape. However, measuring biomechanical changes…
Optical nanofibers (ONFs) are excellent nanophotonic platforms for various applications such as optical sensing, quantum and nonlinear optics, due to both the tight optical confinement and their wide evanescent field in the sub-wavelength…
In the realm of cerebrovascular monitoring, primary metrics typically include blood pressure, which influences cerebral blood flow (CBF) and is contingent upon vessel radius. Measuring CBF non-invasively poses a persistent challenge,…
We propose a scheme to generate robust optomechanical entanglement. This scheme is based on a Backward Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (BSBS) process, which is hosted within an optomechanical structure. Our benchmark system consists of an…
We develop a simple and cost-efficient configuration of Brillouin optical correlation-domain reflectometry (BOCDR), the setup of which does not include an additional reference path used in standard BOCDR systems. The Fresnel-reflected light…
A photonic-assisted multiple radio frequency (RF) measurement approach based on stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) and frequency-to-time mapping with high accuracy and high-frequency resolution is reported. A two-tone signal is…
Forward stimulated Brillouin scattering (F-SBS) is a third-order nonlinear-optical mechanism that couples between two co-propagating optical fields and a guided acoustic mode in a common medium. F-SBS gives rise to nonlinear wave mixing…
In this review we attempt to provide a brief account of laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) methodology and technological developments. We also summarise various methods adopted for exploiting LIBS. Besides, a brief overview of…
