Chirped coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering (CRBS) is a flow diagnostic technique that offers high signal-to-noise ratios and nanosecond temporal resolution. To extract information of dilute gas flow, experimental spectra must be…
Coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering (CRBS) holds great promise for the characterization of gas properties and the investigation of gas kinetic processes. The CRBS spectrum exhibits a strong dependence on the Knudsen number (Kn),…
Thermometric techniques with high accuracy, fast response speed and ease of implementation are desirable for the study of dynamic combustion environments, transient reacting flows, and non-equilibrium plasmas. Herein, single-shot…
Rayleigh Brillouin (RB) scattering profiles for air have been recorded for the temperature range from 255 to 340 K and the pressure range from 640 to 3300 mbar, covering the conditions relevant for the Earth's atmosphere and for planned…
Rayleigh-Brillouin spectral profiles are measured with a laser-based scatterometry setup for a 90 degrees scattering angle at a high signal-to-noise ratio (r.m.s. noise below 0.15 \% w.r.t. peak intensity) in sulphur-hexafluoride gas for…
Spontaneous Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering (RBS) experiments have been performed in air for pressures in the range 0.25 - 3 bar and temperatures in the range 273 - 333 K. The functional behaviour of the RB-spectral profile as a function of…

A theoretical analysis for the stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) instability driven by two laser beams with certain frequency difference is presented. It is found that strong coupling and enhanced SRS take place only when the unstable…
Time-domain Brillouin scattering uses ultrashort laser pulses to generate coherent acoustic pulses of picoseconds duration in a solid sample and to follow their propagation in order to image material inhomogeneities with sub-optical depth…

Ultrastable lasers serve as the backbone for some of the most advanced scientific experiments today and enable the ability to perform atomic spectroscopy and laser interferometry at the highest levels of precision possible. With the recent…
Single-detector 3D dynamic light scattering (3D-DLS) emerges as a reliable technique to determine the drift velocity of out-of-equilibrium colloidal particles. In particular, our investigation reveals the appearance of oscillations of a…
