Tapered optical fiber addresses challenge posed by Brillouin scattering

“Rochester researchers achieve strong optical-acoustic interactions with long-lived acoustic waves. When optical beams, consisting of photons, travel through fibers, they cause vibrations that generate acoustic waves, consisting of phonons. The phenomenon, called Brillouin scattering, has been harnessed by researchers to …
