We present a detailed overview of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in single-mode
optical fibers. The review is divided into two parts. In the first part, we discuss the …

The Year 2022 marks 100 years since Leon Brillouin predicted and theoretically described
the interaction of optical waves with acoustic waves in a medium. Accordingly, this resonant …

The engineering of optical and acoustic material functionalities via construction of ordered
local and global architectures on various length scales commensurate with and well below …

The interaction between light and mesoscopic mechanical degrees of freedom has been
investigated under various perspectives, from spectroscopy in condensed matter, optical …

Interactions between light and hypersonic waves can be enhanced by tight field
confinement, as shown in periodically structured materials, microcavities, micromechanical …

In this paper we study and design quasi-2D optomechanical crystals, waveguides, and
resonant cavities formed from patterned slabs. Two-dimensional periodicity allows for in …

Brillouin scattering is an important and interesting nonlinear effect involving the interaction
between optical and acoustic fields in optical waveguides. It is increasingly useful in the field …

Photoacoustic spectroscopy, a powerful tool for gas analysis, typically uses bulky gas cells
and discrete microphones. Here we exploit light-gas-acoustic interaction in a gas-filled anti …

The interaction between light and acoustic phonons is strongly modified in sub-wavelength
confinement, and has led to the demonstration and control of Brillouin scattering in photonic …
