Y. Mizuno and K. Nakamura, “Experimental study of Brillouin scattering in perfluorinated polymer optical fiber at telecommunication wavelength,” Appl. Phys. Lett., vol. 97, no. 2, 021103 (2010).
Brillouin scattering properties in a perfluorinated graded-index polymeroptical fiber (POF) with 120 μm core diameter were experimentally investigated using a laser with an operating wavelength of 1.55 μm. The Brillouin frequency shift and the Brillouin bandwidth were 2.83 GHz and 105 MHz, respectively. The calculated Brillouin gain coefficient of 3.09 × 10-11 m/W was comparable to that of fused silica fibers. The Brillouin threshold power of the 100 m POF was estimated to be 24 W, which we believe can be reduced by employing POFs with smaller cores.
