Observation of elastic anisotropy in strained optical nanofibers using Brillouin spectroscopy

Optical nanofibers (ONFs) are excellent nanophotonic platforms for many applications such as optical sensing, quantum photonics, and nonlinear optics, due to both tight optical confinement and their evanescent field. From an acoustic viewpoint, it has recently been reported the observation of a new class of Brillouin acoustic resonances in optical nanofibers, including hybrid shear/longitudinal acoustic waves (HAWs) and surface acoustic waves (SAWs) [1–2]. It has been later shown that, under axial tensile strain, the Brillouin frequency shifts (BFS) of these elastic resonances are fundamentally different from that of standard optical fibers [3]. This is principally due to the hybrid nature …

A Brillouin fiber laser at 2 µm based on a step-index tellurite (TeO2) optical fiber

International audience; We demonstrate Brillouin lasing at 2-µm using a step-index Tellurite-glass optical fiber in a passive fiber ring cavity. A low lasing threshold of 70 mW was achieved with a Brillouin gain of 1.05 × 10-10 m/W for a Brillouin frequency shift of 6.165 GHz. Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in optical fibers is a nonlinear process with important applications such as distributed optical fiber sensing, microwave photonics, optical storage, and fiber lasers. The latter application has attracted significant interest as highly coherent laser sources with sub-Hz linewidth can be achieved using SBS in optical cavities. To date, most of Brillouin fibers lasers (BFLs) have be…

Shaping Brillouin Light in Specialty Optical Fibers

Stimulated Brillouin scattering in Germanium-doped-core optical fibers up to 98% mol doping level

International audience; We experimentally investigate stimulated Brillouin scattering in several highly GeO2-doped optical fibers and report wide frequency tunability over more than 3 GHz and Brillouin gain 7 times larger than in standard silica fibers.
