stimulated brillouin scattering spectroscopy
1Brillouin scattering — Brillouin scattering, named after Léon Brillouin, occurs when light in a medium (such as air, water or a crystal) interacts with time dependent optical density variations and changes its energy (frequency) and path. The density variations may be… …
2Scattering theory — Top: the real part of a plane wave travelling upwards. Bottom: The real part of the field after inserting in the path of the plane wave a small transparent disk of index of refraction higher than the index of the surrounding medium. This object… …
3Raman scattering — or the Raman effect (pronounced: IPA| [rə.mən] ) is the inelastic scattering of a photon. Discovered By Dr. C.V. Raman in liquids and by Grigory Landsberg and Leonid Mandelstam in crystals.When light is scattered from an atom or molecule, most… …
