Guided acoustic-wave Brillouin scattering

Shelby, R. M., Levenson, M. D., Bayer, P. W.·1985·Physical Review B

Abstract

Forward light scattering by the thermally excited guided acoustic modes of an optical fiber produce numerous narrow lines not predicted by the usual theory of Brillouin scattering. Optical heterodyne detection has been used to resolve the scattering spectrum which begins at about 20 MHz and extends to the detection limit. A simple theory quantitatively accounts for the frequencies, polarizations, and intensities of the components. The light scattering from these modes constitutes a thermal-noise source in optical fibers that may prove significant in other experiments.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
