Stimulated
Brillouin scattering (SBS) is the most important example of a
stimulated scattering process-light scattering that occurs when the
intensity of the light field itself affects the propagating medium. A
phenomenon that has been known of for some 35 years in solid state laser
research, it has recently become relevant in the optical fiber
industry, due to the increasing intensity required in optical fiber
cores (and their long interaction lengths). SBS is one of the major
limiting factors on the amount of power that can be transmitted via an
optical fiber.
