Spectral narrowing in coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering.
Coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering is a four-wave mixing technique that provides information on various physical properties of the scattering medium in the spectral domain. Being based on density gratings generated by dipole forces, the method requires two pump beams of sufficient spectral width to span the full response bandwidth of the scattering medium. We provide experimental data on th...
متن کاملSpectral narrowing in coherent rayleigh scattering.
Spectral narrowing of the coherent Rayleigh scattering line shape in a room temperature CO(2) gas (2.5 x 10(23) m(-3)) with intense fields in the 10(15) W m(-2) range is observed. The line shape saturates to a width of approximately half that observed at low pump intensities and indicates a transition from scattering primarily from untrapped molecules to that from both trapped and untrapped mol...
متن کاملSpectral measurements of hyper-Rayleigh light scattering
An apparatus is described for the measurement of second-order nonlinear optical properties via hyper-Rayleigh scattering with 1 cm spectral resolution of the scattered light. The setup allows a complete investigation of the polarization dependence of the second-harmonic scattered light. The combination of good spectral resolution, polarization analysis, and high sensitivity allows the determina...
متن کاملCoherent Rayleigh scattering in the high intensity regime
Coherent Rayleigh scattering (CRS) is studied in the high intensity regime, where the optical lattice potential approaches the thermal energy of the gas particles. We describe this optical-kinetic process using a 1-D Boltzmann equation with an arbitrary strong optical force and show that in this regime a line shape narrowing phenomenon is predicted and that the signal intensity saturates when c...
متن کاملRemote-sensing gas measurements with coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering
We measure the coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering (CRBS) signal integral as a function of the recorded gas pressure in He, Co2, SF6, and air, and we confirm the already established quadratic dependence of the signal on the gas density. We propose the use of CRBS as an effective diagnostic for the remote measurement of gas’ density (pressure) and temperature, as well as polarizability, for g...
